I Need You

Just when I had lost my sense of humor
My heart was just a tangle of barbed wire
You could get to me but I'd get to you sooner
I quit before I'm fired

Tried every trick to stop you in your tracks
Shot off my gun to run you off my land
You just stood there trying not to laugh
And held up your hands

That's when I knew your aim was steady
That's when I knew, but you knew it already

That I need you, just a little, just a little
I need you all right

I was taking pride in being lonely
I was busy making friends with myself
There's nobody else who really knows me half as well

I know how to rock me like a baby
And know how to sing myself to sleep
But I'm starting to think maybe, just maybe
Surrender can be sweet

That's what you do, you make it so easy
That's what you do, you got me believing

That I need you, just a little, just a little
I need you all right
I need you just a little, just enough

To be open, to be grateful, to be broken, but hopeful

I need you, just a little, just a little
I need you, all right, are you satisfied?
I need you, just a little, just a little
