Some need the best seat, all the way up front
They need excuses to tell you what they want
I don’t need charity, I can do this on my own
But sometimes I long for someone,
Like you

Some girls are playing, ooh they’re easy to pass by
Not this one, there’s perseverance in my eyes
We could be close, I guess we should
So take a look and listen good

I need a man, I need a friend, I need a lover
And you need me, I can see, we need each other
And I have loved so few
Like you, so few

Will you give in, when I give up
Let’s take a chance, let’s take off
It’s simple and it’s plain
Finally in love again
There’s no way I’m gonna stop

I need a man, I need a friend, I need a lover
And you need me, I can see, we need each other
And I have loved so few
Like you, like you, so few
I need a man, I need a lover and you need me
We need each other, we’re hard to get
But we don’t bother, don’t bother
Like you, like you, so few, like you ooh
