I Need Your Love

I need your love, dear
And I need your smile, dear
Not once in a while, dear
But right now
So don't keep me waiting
For I'm not playing
I need your love, dear
Right now

Sometimes I'm lonely
Sometimes I'm blue
But I'm always happy
When I'm with you
So tell me you want me
And tell me you need me
Tell me you love me
Right now

But when you hold me
The world, it enfolds me
And my heart keeps telling me
That you love me too
So tell me my heart's not fooling me
Tell me my heart's not ruling me
Why don't you tell me your love
Is mine right now?

Oh, when you hold me
And when you confess your love
Oh, when you tell me your love
Is mine right now
And my world gets brighter
And this old load gets a little lighter
Girl, I need your love
Right now

So darling, I've been singing this song
What seems so very, very long
Wondering, hoping, and praying
That you believe in the words that I say
