I need your sweet inspiration   I need you here on my mind every hour of the day   Without your sweet inspiration   The lonely hours of the night just don't go my way      A man in love needs sweet inspiration   And honey that's all I ask, that's all I ask from you   I gotta have sweet inspiration   You know there's just no telling what a satisfied man might do      If I'm out in the rain baby   In a bad situation   I just reach back in my mind to find   Sweet, sweet inspiration      Sweet, oh what a power   And I've got the power every hour in the day   I need your sweet inspiration   To go on livin, to keep on givin this way      Sweet, sweet inspiration    (repeats)
