Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby I need you
Ooh, ooh
Baby I need you
Been gone too long
[Verse 2]
The memory keeps calling me back
To the love and we once had it
The memory keeps calling me back
To our love when we once had it
[Verse 3]
Baby I need you
Ooh, ooh
Baby I need you
But I did you wrong
[Verse 4]
The memory keeps calling me back
To the love and we once had it
[Verse 5]
The memory keeps calling me back
To the love and we once had it
The memory keeps calling me back
To our love when we once had it
[Verse 6]
Baby I need you
Ooh, ooh
Baby I need you
Been gone too long
[Verse 7]
The memory keeps calling me back
To the love and we once had it
The memory keeps calling me back (In, in my heart, in my... in my soul)
To our love when we once had it (I know I did you wrong baby)
The memory keeps calling me back (A new man was prevalent, just trying to find myself)
To the love and we once had it (Just trying to, just trying to open up my eyes, so I can see the light to, to realize)
The memory keeps calling me back (What you mean to me, and, and what you are to me)
To our love when we once had it (And baby and baby I, I love you)
[Verse 8]
Baby I need you
