I Need You, lyric by America

from the songs album America

We used to laugh, we used to cry
We used to bow our heads then, wonder why
And now you're gone, i guess i'll carry on
And make the best of what you've left to me
Left to me, left to me

I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know i need you, guess i'll start it all again
You know i need you like the winter needs the spring
You know i need you, i need you

And every day, i'd laugh the hours away
Just knowing you were thinking of me
And then it came that i was put to blame
For every story told about me
About me, about me

I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know i need you, guess i'll start it all again
You know i need you, i need you
I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know i need you, guess i'll start it all again
You know i need you, i need you

I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know i need you, guess i'll start it all again
You know i need you, i need you
I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know i need you, guess i'll start it all again
You know i need you, i need you ...
