We tried to make ourselves pay for something we've never done
|
We threw the best parts of life away on street talk strangers and drugs
|
What we really want is love what we really need is love
|
[ guitar ]
|
I wanna call out your name I wanna hold out my hand
|
A woman silent in the mirror tonight wants to talk to your mirror man
|
And what they really want is love and what they really need is love
|
[ guitar ]
|
We are ships in the night the water is deep in between
|
There is reason and we can't find the light so we sail off into our dreams
|
And what we really dream is love and what we really need is love
|
What we want is love what we need is love
|
[ guitar ]
|
We tried to make it feel right in someone else's world
|
We sat and looked out my window last night
|
And knew that things had changed with this girl
|
Cause what I really found was love cause what we really need is love
|
What we really want is love what we really need is love
|
What we want is love what we need is love
|
