Need You Tonight – by Tim Hopton
I’ve been gone so long
Couldn’t carry on
Knowing I won’t
Be with you tonight
All these lonely days
Miss you so many ways
Can’t find words to say
How I need you tonight
-----
I know what you needed was a friend
I won’t see you hurt again
I see what you’re needing deep inside
I will succeed while all the others tried
I won’t give up till I’m by your side
-----
No chance I won’t take
To tempt the hand of fate
No rule I won’t break
To be with you tonight
Lovers I have known
Easy come, easy go
Take you down slow
When I’m with you tonight
-----
I know what you needed was a friend
I won’t see you hurt again
I see what you’re needing deep inside
I will succeed while all the others tried
I won’t give up till I’m by your side
-----
There’s no room for doubt
Won’t let time run out
Won’t be without
Your love tonight
Always on my mind
My best waste of time
Say you’ll be mine
Be with you tonight
-----
If I’m gone
It won’t be for long
Just dream on
And I’m with you tonight
-----
Keys solo
-----
Lovers I have known
Easy come, easy go
Take you down slow
When I’m with you tonight
No chance I won’t take
To tempt the hand of fate
No rule I won’t break
To be with you tonight
-----
Always on my mind
My best waste of time
Say you’ll be mine
Be with you tonight
There’s no room for doubt
Won’t let time run out
Can’t be without
Your love tonight
-----
Keys solo to end
