I Need You Now

(Tom Douglas/Michael Joyce)

I heard our song from a passing car
The music faded down the boulevard
Streets of empty silence cried out loud
Telling me that I need you now

Lonely whistle of a passing train
That calls to me in the pouring rain
A face I never see in every crowd
Reminds me that I need you now

I'll never get over you
'Cause everything I do
Leads me back to you somehow
Like a fool I believed
That you would never leave
I let you walk away
I was just too proud
To tell you then
That I need you now

I used to wonder where we went wrong
Now I wonder how you stayed so long
In a love where honesty was not allowed
And I never said I need you now

I'll never get over you
'Cause everything I do
Leads me back to you somehow
Like a fool I believed
That you would never leave
I let you walk away
I was just too proud
To tell you then
That I need you now

All I know is I need you now
