The Temptations

You Need Love Like I Do (Don't You)

Well, well, well, well

Seems like it was only yesterday

When my mama told me don't fall in love

With the first guy that comes your way

He was handsome and nice

But, I took her advice and passed him by

Years have passed and don't look like

Love's gonna give me a second try

Boy, the look on your face tells me you understand

Could it be your love life's like mine

Needs a helping hand well, well

You need love like I do

(Don't you?)

Boy, I can tell by the way

You look when I'm looking at you

I know it ain't fit and proper

For a girl to talk this way

But, I can't cope with this loneliness

Not one more doggone day

Everyday has been an uphill climb

Keeping my hopes a-float

Judging from your silence boy

You must be in the same boat

Ain't it true now?

You need love like I do

(Don't you?)

Boy, I can tell by the way you look

When I'm looking at you

Well, well, well, you need love like I do

(Don't you?)
