As I lay back   In my deepest confession   I’ve come to depend on you   Again, my friend   You with the bright eyes   You with the world in your pocket   Then me, just waiting for you   To come around and say   And you say      Well well well, wait   Don’t ever leave me   I wanna live my life like this   Forever needed   Now, wait   Don’t ever leave me   I wanna live my life like this,   Forever needed      As I lay down   With your spirit to guide me   No I, I won’t change a thing   Until you come around here   You with your great smile   Now you with those beautiful blue   And then me just waiting for you   To come around and say   And you say      Well well well, wait   Don’t ever leave me   I wanna live my life like this   Forever needed   Now, wait   Don’t ever leave me   I wanna live my life like this,   Forever needed      On a bad night   You came around   With your gentle way   To see me thru   Now you with the bright eyes   And me with the world in my pocket   And we could really   Get lost tonight   If you say      Wait, don’t ever leave me   I wanna leave my life like this   Forever needed
