Need You

[Verse 1]

I know it's not your fault, but I'm a locked door

And inside, I'm a mess by someone before

And I wish that I, I could find a key

To unlock all the things you want us to be

[Pre-Chorus]

Let me open up and start again

But there's a safe around my heart

I don't know how to let you in

That's what keeps us apart

[Chorus]

And that's why I need time

I said I need you

I need you to understand

You, you, you

I need you to understand

You, you

[Verse 2]

Call up the locksmith

Tell him we need him quick

We've got a million keys

None of 'em seem to fit

While you're on the phone

Call up the clocksmith

'Cause I could use some time

Even the slightest bit

[Pre-Chorus]

Let me open up and start again

And break this safe around my heart

I don't know how to let you in

That's what keeps us apart

[Chorus]

And that's why I need time

I said I need you

I need you to understand

You, you, you

I need you to understand

[Bridge]

I'm thinking now's the time

Maybe it's time to go

If I gave you my heart, be gentle

I'm tired of layin' low, let's give the world a show

And when you know, you know (Ooh, ooh)

And when you know, you know, you know (Ooh, ooh)

And when you know, you know, you know, you know

[Chorus]

And that's why I need time

I said I need you

I need you to understand

You, you, you

I need you to understand

I need you to understand

I need you to understand

I need you to understand

[Outro]

I need you

I need you

I need you

You, you
