i need to be loved

Lyrics

well, i'm hungry for lovin', but i just can't get me none, i tried and i tried, but i can't find anyone, won't somebody tell me what the reason can be, why no girl wants to give her love to me?, everybody needs something, and i need to be loved. now, most people have it, and they get it all the time, but i do without it, tell me why can't love be mine?, i tried for so long, but it's so hard to find, a lover to help me, it's breakin' my mind, everybody needs something, and i need to be loved, well, i spend my time lost and lonely, everyday and all night, i don't know how long i can go on, and i know is it ain't right, well now, can't find that certain someone, and i just don't understand, i know out there, there's a girl somewhere, for such a lonely man, i'll come home this evening, just like all the nights before, and i'll be alone, when i walk through my front door, and i'll go to bed 'round a quarter to two, and i will start cryin' like i always do, everybody needs something and i need to be loved, whoa, i need to be loved, yeah, i need to be loved
