Song Lyrics

Like a poet wants pain
Like a bride begs a kiss
Like a baby wants a mother
Like a gambler has to risk
Like a drunk needs a drink
An artist needs a muse
It is the middle of the night
All I need is you

Like ust needs steel
Ocean needs a shore
Like the moon needs the night
Like a pimp needs a (Dsus4)whore
Like a river craves the bank
A cold December begs for June
It is the middle of the night
All I (Dsus4)need is (G)you

I (D)don't need candles
Or lace or wine
And I don't (Cadd9)care about the consequences
Of what I've left behind
You can (D)take away all I have
'Cause the only thing that's true
Is it is the (Cadd9)middle of the night
(D)And all I need is (Em)you (Cadd9)(G)

Like a (G)kid loves to play
A horse loves to run
Like the (Cadd9)sisters need Jesus
Like a (G)robber loves his (Dsus4)gun
Like a (G)junkie needs his needle
There is nothing I can't do
'Cause it is the (Cadd9)middle of the night
All I (Dsus4)need is (G)you

Like a (G)train needs a track
Like the sun loves to shine
Like the (Cadd9)world needs a conscience
Like (G)bells need to (Dsus4)chime
Like the (G)stars love the sky
Guilt needs shame
I will (Cadd9)lie here in the dark
I will (Dsus4)call your (G)name

And I (D)don't need candles
Or lace or wine
And I don't (Cadd9)care about the consequences
Of what I've left behind
You can take away all I have
But the only thing that's true
Is it is the middle of the night
And all I need is you
All I need is you
