I Need To Be Loved

Well, I'm hungry for lovin',



but I just can't get me none



I tried and I tried,



but I can't find anyone







Won't somebody tell me what the reason can be,



why no girl wants to give her love to me?



Everybody needs something, and I need to be loved.



Now, most people have it,



and they get it all the time



But I do without it, tell me why can't love be mine?







I tried for so long,



but it's so hard to find



a lover to help me,



it's breakin' my mind







Everybody needs something, and I need to be loved



Well, I spend my time lost and lonely,



everyday and all night



I don't know how long I can go on,



and I know is it ain't right







Well now, can't find that certain someone,



and I just don't understand



I know out there, there's a girl somewhere,



for such a lonely man



I'll come home this evening



just like all the nights before,



and I'll be alone



When I walk through my front door



And I'll go to bed 'round a quarter to 2,



and I will start cryin like I always do







Everybody needs something and I need to be loved



Whoa, I need to be loved



Yeah, I need to be loved
