Thanks to Char Star for these lyrics.



Say you wanna be loved

But you wont let me love you

Say you want someone to trust in you, baby

Cant you see thats what Im tryin to do



I know youve been hurt before

And youre afraid to try love once more



Without love by your side, youre only half alive

Cause everybody needs love, oh, yeah

Everybody needs love



Say you wanna be kissed (Mmm, hmm)

But you wont let me kiss you (No, no, no)

Say you wanna be missed (Mmm, hmm)

Cant you see how my arms are missing you



Shes got you hurting so inside

Now with love you try to hide



But no matter how you try

Without love you cant survive

Cause everybody needs love, oh, yeah

Everybody needs love

Oh, loves alright



You need love, I need love

Everybody needs love



Baby, dont you know that

You need love and I need love

Everybody needs love, oh, yeah

Everybody needs love



Say you wake up in the morning, yes, you will

Feeling, ooh, so empty inside (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I bet I know what your trouble is, baby

You need someone like me by your side



I know youve been hurt before

But dont be afraid to try love once more



Cause without love youll find

Youll have no peace of mind

Cause everybody needs love, oh, yeah

Everybody needs love



You need love and I need love

Everybody needs love, love, love

You need love, I sure need love

Everybody needs love
