Gonna take my time
Gonna write this rhyme
As a love song

Everybody needs somebody like I need you
I waited much too long to tell you how I feel inside
Love won't be denied, love won't die
Everybody needs somebody like I need you

I want you here, my dear
No need for you to fear
Just want to sing to you this love song
Waited much too long for true love to come along
Am I coming on too strong in my love song?

Want you here, my dear
No need for you to fear
Just want to sing to you this love song
Waited much too long for true love to come along
Am I coming on too strong in my love song?

Now you're here and the atmosphere is clear
Nothing's here to fear, my dear
Love's so strong, nothing can go wrong
Hear me dear, sing this love song

I've waited much too long to tell you how I feel inside
Love won't be denied, love won't die
Everybody needs someone to love like I need you

Am I coming on too strong?
Am I coming on too strong?
Am I coming on too strong?

Am I coming on too strong?
Am I coming on too strong?
Am I coming on too strong?

Everybody needs somebody
Want you here, my dear
No need for you to fear
Just want to sing to you this love song
Waited much too long for true love to come along
Am I coming on too strong in my love song?

I want you here, my dear
No need for you to fear
Just want to sing to you this love song
Waited much too long for true love to come along
Am I coming on too strong in my love song?

Want you here, my dear
No need for you to fear
Just want to sing to you this love song...
