4
You, you I see in my mirror in the mornin'
5
Instead of seein' me
6
I see you, I see your face
7
And inside me is a growing need for your embrace
8
In the light of day, though our faces meet
9
Someone there might see someone else speak
10
Till the dark of night, while the moon is new
11
While we whisper words of love in our secret rendezvous
12
Somethin's wrong I know, girl I love you so
13
Yes I need you, I need you baby
14
Oh you, my sweetest joy
15
You can afford the best of life
16
I'm just a heartbreakin' boy
17
Oh you've given your love to me
18
Girl, I can't let you hurt yourself by being seen with me
19
We're worlds apart, so close yet very far
20
So we must hide the love we're feelin' in our hearts
21
We meet in shadows, your friends must never know
22
That we are lovers, darlin'
23
Alhough it hurts me so, for your sake no one must see
24
The press of love you're givin' me
25
But you know, I need you baby
26
One day I'll make the break, my love will start to shine
27
I can tell the world that you are mine, all mine
28
Till then we must go on the way we have before
29
And never let it show without each other's souls
30
I'll never one-way track 'cause there's no turnin' back
31
Oh I need you baby
32
(repeat verse 1 and fade)
