Song lyrics
'Cause I need you
'Cause I need you

Every single time I see you I start to feel this way
It makes me wonder if I'm ever gonna feel this way again
There's a picture that's hanging at the back of my head
I see it over and over

I want to hold you and love you in my arms 
And then I want to lead you 'cause I need to be with you 'til the end
Then I hear myself reply you've got to hold it in this time 
Tonight

If only I had the guts to feel this way
If only you'd look at me and want to stay
If only I'd take you in my arms and say, "I won't go 'cause I need you"
'Cause I need you

I sit here waiting 
Wondering 
Hoping that I'll make this right 'cause all I think about is your hands
Your face and all these lonely nights
There's a feeling screaming in the back of my head
Saying over and over

I want to hold you 
Love you in my arms 
And then I want to need you 'cause I need to be with you 'til the end
Then I hear myself reply she'll never let you in this time
Tonight

If only I had the guts to feel this way
If only you'd look at me and want to stay
If only I'd take you in my arms and say, "I won't go 'cause I need you"
Please don't go 'cause I need you now

I want to hear you say it'll always be this way
That we'll be hand in hand for every night and every day
I want to scream and shout 'cause I'm losing any doubt
And all I care about is you and me 
And us and now
Oh yeah

Whoo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Whoo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Whoo ooh ooh ooh ooh

Yeah

If only I had the guts to feel this way
If only you'd look at me and want to stay
If only I'd take you in my arms and say, "I won't go 'cause I need you"
Please don't go 'cause I need you
Yeah
'Cause I need you

(If only)
'Cause I need you now
(If only)
'Cause I need you now
I need you

(If only)
'Cause I need you now
(If only)
'Cause I need you now
(If only)
(If only)
'Cause I need you now
Yeah

Good song. Made a very good comeback. You have to admitt they aren't bad. The Harmonica part is awesome!

I don't care much for Hanson, but I loved the Harmonica piece near the end of this song.

This song is awesome!
The harmonica in the beginning is breathtaking!
No doubt it's the best one from Hanson ever!
