When I Need You

(album: The Marvelettes (aka The Pink Album) - 1967)

(Baby, I need you)

Oh, every time I see you, I get all choked up inside
I can't believe that we're through, but by your word I must abide

But I need you
I can't help the way I feel
Yes, I need you, baby
Why can't you see
How much your love must mean to me?
What else can I do when I need you, yeah (Baby, I need you)

My pride has kept me going
I wouldn't stop now if I could
All my love is showing (Showing)
I guess I always knew it would

But I need you so bad
You've been gone away too long
Yes, I need you (Need you)
Can you explain, why must my life be lived in pain?
What else can I do when I need you? (Baby, I need you)

If you ever need me, I want you just to call my name
No matter where you leave me, I'll be there to play your game

'Cause I need you
You're the only one for me
Yes, I need you, baby (Need you)
As a matter of fact, I'll be so glad to take you back
What else can I do when I need you, yeah (Baby, I need you)
I need you (Baby, I need you)
Every day, now (Baby, I need you)
Oh, I need you
