Ohhhhh
Ohhhh

Now you say every time you need
Some affection
The one you love
Goes in another direction
And you just sit there in a daze
Reminiscing
When you know some other lips
He's been kissing

Now when you need the love he's never shown
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
Oh, but I know I'm the one you need
Said, I may not be the one you want
Ooh, but I know I'm the one you need

Your life stands still
The minute he goes
You count the hours
Just hoping he shows

Girl, can't you see while you're longing 
For his touch
That I'm the one 
Who loves you so much
While you're longing for his 
Embrace
You're all alone there
With tears on your face

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
But I sure 'nuff the one you need
Oh baby, I may not be the one you want
Ooh, but I know I'm the one you need

Now the days, the days you sit
Alone by yourself
He's out fooling round
With somebody else
Leaving you alone here
With nothing to do
Just waiting 'till he has time for you

Now when the loneliness gets hard to bear
Girl come round here
And when you need a little tender loving care
Girl come round here

Now I may not be the one you want
But I know I'm the one you need........
