I Need You
For anyone who finally said the thing they were afraid to need.
- love
- family
Lyrics
Verse 1
I really miss you
The woman that I chose
Sometimes I need to hear your voice
When we aren’t close
I sit here staring at my phone
Wanting to make that call
Terrified of what you’ll say
Afraid my hopes will fall
[Pre Chorus]
I know that we’re both scared
Although together, we’re alone
Lots of hard things to talk about
But just need your love over the phone
[Chorus]
Sometimes I just need you
I need to hear your voice
I want to hear your laugh
I ache to have that choice
I call to feel connected
To feel I’m close to you
To hear that you’re still there
To show my love, I follow through
[Verse 2]
When I know that you’re scared
I know that life hurts
I know that there is no horizon
And your heart is about to burst
I know that I should call
And support with all my drive
But the fear of hearing all is wrong
Or that we won’t survive
[Pre Chorus]
I know that we’re both scared
Although together, we’re alone
Lots of hard things to talk about
But just need your love over the phone
[Chorus]
Sometimes I just need you
I need to hear your voice
I want to hear your laugh
I ache to have that choice
I call to feel connected
To feel I’m close to you
To hear that you’re still there
To show my love, I follow through
[Outro]
Sometimes I don’t call
I don’t get to hear your voice
My love for you turns into blue
Silence becomes my choice
[Final Chorus]
Sometimes I just need you
I need to hear your voice
I want to hear you laugh
I ache to have that choice
I want to feel connected
To feel you’re close to me
To hear that we’re both still here
To show my love, in a way that you can see
I NEED YOU, TO NEED ME, TOO
Story behind the song
The fear of hard calls
Also written for someone
