I NEED TO BE IN LOVE
"Carpenters"
|STANZA I| |STANZA 1I| |CHORUS| |STANZA 11I|




Stanza 1

The hardest thing I've ever done
Is keep believing
There's someone in this
crazy world
For me
The way that people  come and go
Thru temporary lives
My chance could come and
I might never know





Stanza 11

I used to say "No promises,
Let's keep it simple"
But freedom only helps you say
Good-bye
It took a while for me to learn
That nothin' comes for free
The price I've paid is high enough for me





Chorus:

I know I need to be in love
I know I've wasted too much time
I know I ask perfection of
A quite imperfect world
And fool enough to think that's
what I'll find





Stanza 111

So here I am with pockets
full of good intentionsSo here
I am with pockets full of good intentions
But none of them will
comfort me tonight
I'm wide awake at four a.m.
Without a friend in sight
Hanging on a hope but I'm alright



(Repeat twice)
