Well, well, well, seems like it was only yesterday
When mama told me, don't fall in love with the first girl that comes your way
She was pretty and nice but I took her advice and passed her by
Years have passed and I don't know if love's gonna give me a second try

Well the look on your face tells me you understand
Could it be your love life like mine, needs a helping hand

Well, you need love like I do, don't you
I can tell by the way you look, when I'm looking at you

(take it girl) I know it ain't fit and proper for a girl to talk this way
But I can't cope with this loneliness not one more God damnedday
Everyday bringing up your side to keep my hopes afloat
Judging by your silence, boy you must be in the same boat

Well, you need love like I do, don't you
I can tell by the way you look, when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you
It seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

I can't begin to tell the many nights I sat home lonely
Come on, tell me girl, has it ever happened to you?
I'm gonna tell you something and believe me, it ain't no joke
My love life is just like a sinking boat

I can understand a person being without money
You can show me the reason for a person to be without love

Listen to me now, I'm a girl and you're a guy (yes it's true)
Come on let's give love a try (haha, yeah)

You need love like I do, don't you
I can tell by the way you look, when I'm looking at you

Finding true love is a dream everybody wants to come true
Can't you see it's up to us to make this dream come true

You need love like I do, don't you
I can tell by the way you look, when I'm looking at you
(Well, well) You need love like I do, don't you
It seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

Ain't it true, ain't it true, ain't it true
Ain't it true, ain't it true, yes it's so true
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, well, well, well, well, well, well
You need love too

You need love like I do, don't you
I can tell by the way you look, when I'm looking at you
(Hey, hey) You need love like I do, don't you
It seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

You need love like I do, don't you
I can tell by the way you look, when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you
It seems like I'm looking in the mirror, when I'm looking at you

Ain't it true girl
Well, I'm in love
I need love
And I need you
And I need you too!
