I need you   I need you   I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout my life as it is   and the faith that I’ve placed in you   I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout mistakes that I’ve made   and is this such a smart thing to do   Especially when the rain gets cold and hard- I need you   Especially when the future looks so dark- I need you   Sweet little thing   I need you sweet little thing -I need you      I’ve been thinking ‘bout the progress we’ve made   and I can’t say I’m satisfied   I use to think that I’d find my way home   and you can’t say I haven’t tried   Imagine if I lost my sense of sight - I need you   Imagine if they stole my inner light -I need you sweet little thing   I need you sweet little thing -I need you      I need you   I need you   I need you   I need you      I - I’ve been thinkin’ about the world as it is and I feel kind of insecure   I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout the gravel under foot and the grief that all endure   And even if the road was paved with gold - baby I need you   and even if the sky was clear and blue -I need you sweet little thing   I need you oh sweet little thing   I need you sweet little thing   I need you, oh sweet little thing   I need you
