Now you say... everytime you need some affection

The one you love goes in another direction

You just sit back in a daze reunising

'cause you know some other lips, she's been kissing



Now when you need the love you never saw you come 'round here

And when you need some loving arms to hold you come 'round here

Now i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)

But i know, i'm the one you need (honey, honey)

Say now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)

But, i know, i'm the one you need (honey, honey)



Your life stands still the minute he goes

You count the hours just hoping he shows



Girl, can't you see while you're looking for his touch (honey, honey)

That i won't want to love you so much (honey, honey)

And while you're looking for kissing friends (honey, honey)

You're lovely with the tears on your face (honey, honey)



Now when you feel the need to cry to someone cry to me

And when you feel the need to lean on someone lean on me

Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)

But i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)

Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)

But i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)



Now, the day, the days, the days you sit round by yourself

He's out fooling round with somebody else

Leaving you alone here with nothing to do

He's just waiting till he has time for you



Now, when the loveliness gets hard to play, girl come 'round here

And when you need a little chicken lover care, girl come 'round here



Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)

But, i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)

Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)

But, i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)
