I Need To Be In Love (Album Version)

I hear the same old love song

Night after night after night

And though I'm not the one the verse regards

Wouldn't it be fair

To hear my name in there

Well, maybe it's just not in the cards

I need to be in love

I've never been in love

Almost every song they play

Says it's quite a run

(And) surely any kind of love

Is worthier than none

I want to be alone

With someone else's touch

Every tune that opens always

Closes with a dance

And if it opens up to me

I won't forsake my chance

But I thing I don't know

Is how it's supposed to go

No one ever sat down to explain

My own experience

Has left me on the fence

Mister, could you play

That love song once again?

I want to live the words

That I have only heard

Never have I walked before in

Someone else's dream

But I've been lonely long enough

In mine and it may seem like greed

But I need to be in love

But I thing I don't know

Is how it's supposed to go

No one ever sat down to explain

My own experience

Has left me on the fence

Mister, could you play

That love song once again?

I want to live the words

That I have only heard

Never have I walked before in

Someone else's dream

But I've been lonely long enough

In mine and it may seem like greed

But I need to be in love
