I'm hoping I'm not too awfully late to tell you what's on my heart
I really do need you

I remember they told me
If I wasn't certain, I should back away
Well, I walked back to you

I went 'round and around and around and around again
I was up
I was down
I was up
I was down again

But now I'm so certain
I put you off, but please take me back again
I really do need you

Yes, oh, yes
I want to tell you
I want to say it from my heart
Yes, oh, yes
I never told you
I never said how much I need you

I took a ride on a slide
Really lied, even to myself
Yes, it's true
I was a fool when I took and put you on the shelf

I need you
I'm crying out for you
