it's just that i need something i can care about
to pick me up and wash me down and wear me out
if i want you it's just that i need something i can't do without
to lift me up and let me down
and lay me out to gather me and give some affection
you can say what you like
but i don't think it's so you
you go straight through my heart
it's just that i need something i can't live without
to tear me up and break me down and bare me out
if i want you i recognize a need in me
i can't disguise a brittle thing
that kicks me like a broken knife
that gathers me and gives me a reflection
you can say what you like
but i don't think it's so you go straight
romeo me come see me i know what you are
possession is ninety nine tenths of it all
i just need something i can really care about
i just need something i can really care about
i just need something i can really care about
i just need something i can really care about
