What I Need
I could try everything
To keep my heart locked away
Then you come opening
Me up without a key
To my surprise
You look inside
And you like what you see
Swallow my pride
Ask you to come and
Stay with me
Just gotta say this plain and sweet
Baby you got what I need
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Wrap me in your energy
Ah, la-da-da-di-da, da-da-da
Tell me you're playin' for keeps
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Cause I know you are the key
Cause now I know you are the key
Key
I have tried everything
To hold back this part of me
Hold back, hold back this part
Hide in my shadow and
Dim what the world could see
Dim what the world could see, what the world
To my surprise, you saw a light
Bright and free
Baby you got what I need
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Wrap me in your energy
Ah, la-da-da-di-da, da-da-da
Tell me you're playin' for keeps
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Cause I know you are the key
Just gotta say this plain and sweet
You're everywhere I wanna be
Oh
Baby you got what I need
Ah, oh you got what, I need, I need, I need
Wrap me in your energy
Ah, wrap me up in your energy, energy, energy
Tell me you're playin' for keeps
Ah, tell me that you play, for keeps, for keeps, for keeps
Cause I know you are the key
Cause I know you're, the key, the key, the key
Cause now I know you are the key
Oh you got what, I need, I need, I need
Wrap me up in your energy, energy, energy
To keep my heart locked away
Then you come opening
Me up without a key
To my surprise
You look inside
And you like what you see
Swallow my pride
Ask you to come and
Stay with me
Just gotta say this plain and sweet
Baby you got what I need
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Wrap me in your energy
Ah, la-da-da-di-da, da-da-da
Tell me you're playin' for keeps
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Cause I know you are the key
Cause now I know you are the key
Key
I have tried everything
To hold back this part of me
Hold back, hold back this part
Hide in my shadow and
Dim what the world could see
Dim what the world could see, what the world
To my surprise, you saw a light
Bright and free
Baby you got what I need
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Wrap me in your energy
Ah, la-da-da-di-da, da-da-da
Tell me you're playin' for keeps
Ah, la-da-da-da, da-da-da
Cause I know you are the key
Just gotta say this plain and sweet
You're everywhere I wanna be
Oh
Baby you got what I need
Ah, oh you got what, I need, I need, I need
Wrap me in your energy
Ah, wrap me up in your energy, energy, energy
Tell me you're playin' for keeps
Ah, tell me that you play, for keeps, for keeps, for keeps
Cause I know you are the key
Cause I know you're, the key, the key, the key
Cause now I know you are the key
Oh you got what, I need, I need, I need
Wrap me up in your energy, energy, energy
