I don't need charity, I can do this on my own But sometimes I long for someone Like you Some girls are playing, ooh they're easy to pass by Not this one, there's perseverance in my eyes We could be close, I guess we should So take a look and listen good I need a man, I need a friend, I need a lover And you need me, I can see, we need each other And I have loved so few Like you, so few Will you give in, when I give up Let's take a chance, let's take off It's simple and it's plain Finally in love again There's no way I'm gonna stop I need a man, I need a friend, I need a lover And you need me, I can see, we need each other And I have loved so few Like you, like you And I can be strong too And I can see right through And there are few, and there are few like me too I need a man, I need a friend, I need a lover And you need me, I can see, we need each other And I have loved so few Like you
