I Need to Be Loved Lyrics

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,
all I know is it ain't right.

BREAK:

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
