I Need Love

L.L. Cool J

3

When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall

and in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call

Telling me I need a girl who's as sweet as a dove

for the first time in my life I see I need love

There I was giggling about the games

that I had played with many hearts and I'm not saying no names

Then the thought occured tear drops made my eyes burn

as I said to myself look what you've done to her

I can feel it inside, I can't explain how it feels

all I know is that I'll never dish another raw deal

Playing make believe pretending that I'm true

holding in my laugh as I say that I love you

Saying amor kissing you on the ear

whispering I love you and I'll always be here

Although I often reminsce I can't believe that I found

a desire for true love floating around

Inside my soul because my soul is cold

one half of me deserves to be this way till I'm old

But the other half needs affection and joy

and the warmth that is created by a girl and a boy

I need love

I need love

Romance sheer delight how sweet

I gotta find me a girl to make my life complete

You can scratch my back, we'll get cozy and huddle

I'll lay down my jacket so you can walk over a puddle

I'll give you a rose, pull out your chair before we eat

kiss you on the cheek and say ooh girl you're so sweet

It's deja vu whenever I'm with you

I could go on forever telling you what I do

But where you at you're neither here or there

I swear I can't find you anywhere

Damn sure you ain't in my closet, or under my rug

this love search is really making me bug

And if you know who you are why don't you make yourself seen

take the chance with my love and you'll find
