Crying out kept me sane
Now it's such a crying shame
Mirrors that reflect my past
Showing what would never last
Knowing where I was before
I can see the shutting doors
Closing to unfailing love
But I can't seem to get enough

I desperately want you
I desperately need you
I need a love that stands true
I desperately want you

Living in a world of hurt
Hurting everything that's worth
Loving til the day I die
Sometime I don't even try
Acting like it's all ok
Knowing that I'm in the way
Seeing where I need to be
But I need you to carry me

I desperately want you
I desperately need you
I need a love that stands true
I desperately want you

You know my name
You know my pain
And I need you
And I need you
And I need you

I desperately want you
I desperately need you
I need a love that stands true
I desperately want you
