I need you.... Not the way a child needs a toy, Or a dog might need a bone. But I need you Like the ocean needs salt in its water, Like a heart needs blood to flow. I need you To make the quiet garden in me bloom, To turn bare soil into life. I need you... Not for a moment, not by chance, But like breath that keeps me alive.

I need you
I need you.... Not the way a child needs a toy, Or a dog might need a bone. But I need you Like the ocean needs salt in its water, Like a heart needs blood to flow. I need you To make the quiet garden in me bloom, To turn bare soil into life. I need you... Not for a moment, not by chance, But like breath that keeps me alive.
