Track: I Need You

Lyrics
When you're feeling like a lover
Nothing really matters anymore
I saw you standing there in the supermarket
With your red dress falling and your eyes are to the ground
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters when the one you love is gone

You're still in me, baby
I need you
In my heart, I need you

'Cause nothing really matters
I'm standing in the doorway
You're walking 'round my place
In your red dress, hair hanging down
With your eyes on one, we love the ones we can
'Cause nothing really matters when you're standing

Standing
I need you, need you

'Cause nothing really matters
We follow the line of the palms of our hands
You're standing in the supermarket
Nothing, holding hands
In your red dress, falling, falling in, falling in
A long black car is waiting 'round
I will miss you when you're gone
I'll miss you when you're gone away forever
'Cause nothing really matters
I thought I knew better, so much better

And I need you
I need you

'Cause nothing really matters
On the night we wrecked like a train
Purring cars and pouring rain
Never felt right about it, never again
'Cause nothing really matters
Nothing really matters anymore
Not even today
No matter how hard I try
When you're standing in the aisle
And baby, nothing
Nothing, nothing

I need, I need, I need you
I need you
I need you
Just breathe, just breathe
I need you
