Need

Paint me a window so I can see

Over the rainbow inside of me

I need

How I need

Crimson and clover, wagon and hay

These are some sweet things, so lovely and gay

I need

How I need

'Cause I'm not the strongman

I am the one in need

If I were a circus traveling around

Would I be the high wire or the one falling down?

I need

How I need

'Cause I'm not the strongman

I am the one

Just who I am and just who you see

A strange contradiction won't let me be

I need

Sunshine and laughter and innocent eyes

Love that stays after the good and the bad times

I need

How I need

To show you the real me is the hardest of all

Should I stay silent or risk the fall?

I need

How I need

(chorus)

And what isn't lovely blossoms one day

Turns bitter snow to a sweet summer day

And I need

You need

How we need

How I need
