| Now you say, every time you need some affection
|
| The one you love goes in another direction
|
| You just sit back in a daze and miss him
|
| 'Cause you know some other lips, he’s been kissing
|
| Now when you need the love he’ll never show you, come 'round here
|
| And when you need some loving arms to hold you, come 'round here
|
| Now I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| But I know I’m the one you need
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Say now, I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| But I know I’m the one you need
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Your life stands still the minute he goes
|
| You count the hours just hoping he shows
|
| Girl, can’t you see while you’re looking for his touch
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| That I’m the one who loves you so much
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| And while you’re longing for his embrace
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| You’re all lonely with the tears on your face
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Now when you feel the need to cry to someone, cry to me
|
| And when you feel the need to lean on someone, lean on me
|
| Now, I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Oh, but I’m sure 'nough the one you need
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Oh, I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| But I’m sure 'nough the one you need
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Now the days, the days, the days you sit alone by yourself
|
| He’s out fooling around with somebody else
|
| Leaving you alone here with nothing to do
|
| He’s just waiting 'til he has time for you
|
| Now, when the loneliness get hard to bear, girl, come around here
|
| And when you need a little tender love and care, girl, come around here
|
| Now, I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| But I’m sure 'nough the one you need
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Oh yeah, I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| I may not be the one you want
|
| (Honey, honey)
|
| But, I’m sure 'nough the one you need… |
