What You Need

Ah-ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Baby, I should have listened, yeah
They told me and I didn't listen, yeah
Looked in your eyes, gave you all of my time
Since I've been with you

I know your deal with other women, yeah
When all I did is love you differently
Made you a home, gave you someone to hold
All that I know, yeah, I held down my own
But you never lied to me, is what you say
So tell me the truth about the games you play, yeah

Maybe it's love, maybe it's right and
Maybe it's time, time to decide if
This is what you want and this is what you need
Show me all your cards, and we can let it be
Don't mean to say I'm perfect
These days, they are the worst days, oh
I gave you all this love, and you're leaving it
You don't know how I feel when I'm needing you, yeah

Remember the first time I told you I loved you
Human just words, baby girl, I really meant that
But that's your heart, so I'm supposed to protect that
Said you need space, only reason that I stepped back

Couple things I regret
The mistakes that I made probably made you resent man
And I know right now I don't deserve you
Or a second chance and I accept that

But can we start again?
Late night used to pick you up after ten
And we would cruise through the city with your playlist on
And I would sing along to your favourite songs

And you would always laugh, and I couldn't get the words right
I knew you were the one from the first sight
My bro's telling me to try and replace you
But it don't matter who I find if she ain't you
How many times did we argue and make up?
I never saw the day we would break up

Looking back now, I took that for granted
But I'm grateful for how long we lasted
Grateful for the time that we spent
But times that we laughed I try to forget

And I know I'm disliked by your friends
But you for, I'd be nicer to them
How you live in my head so rent-free?
Other girls try and tempt me
I just want you to feel how you felt
Same butterflies you had when you met me
But that's only if you let me

Maybe it's love, maybe it's right and
Maybe it's time, time to decide if
This is what you want and this is what you need
Show me all your cards, and we can let it be
Don't mean to say I'm perfect
And these days, they are the worst days, oh
I gave you all this love, and you're leaving it
You don't know how I feel when I'm needing you, yeah
