Like Ships Need the Sea

My mother once told me I don't need a man
To be the best I can be.
But one look from you, I'm changing my plans
'Cause Darling I need you like ships need the sea,
Darling I need you like ships need the sea.
Ahhhhhhh
My grandfather told me that real men don't cry.
But I saw your tears in the moonlight.
That's when I knew that my grandfather lied.
And Darling I need you like birds need the sky,
Darling I need you like birds need the sky.
Ahhhhhh
Finally you gave me the hope I'd awaited.
Finally you gave me your heart.
Finally I gave you the love you'd awaited,
Finally I gave you my heart.
Finally you gave me the hope I'd awaited.
Finally you gave me your heart.
Finally I gave you the love you'd awaited,
Finally I gave you my heart.
Ahhhhhh
That preacher, he told me that love's not easy
I told him I don't want it to be.
Darling, I need you like ships need the sea
And I'm going to love you
I'm going to love you
I'm going to love you for all of our days
I'm going to love you for all of our days
Ahhhhh
My mother once told me I don't need a man, but Darling, I need you.
My mother once told me I don't need a man, but Darling, I need you.
