Songtexte: Michael McDonald. Motown Two. Baby I Need Your Loving.

(B. Holland/L. Dozier/E. Holland, Jr.)

Baby, I need your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Although you're never near
Your voice I often hear
Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
'cause I'm so lonely

Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving

Some say it's a sign of weakness
For a man to beg
Then weak I'd rather be
If it means having you to keep
'cause lately I've been losing sleep

Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving

Empty nights echo your name
Sometimes I wonder will I ever be the same?
Oh yeah!
When you see me smile
You know things have gotten worse
Any smile you might see, darling
Has all been rehearsed

Darling, I can't go on living without you
This emptiness won't let me live without you
Loneliness inside me, baby
Makes me feel half alive

Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
