Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I leave your door, when we say goodnight
It hurts me more and more
'Cause, girl, it just ain't right to end the day like this
With no more than a kiss
And spend the night just dreaming of the things we're gonna miss
[Verse 2]
If I had my way
Girl, we'd be together more and more each day
We'd go on forever
Lovers hand in hand, can't you understand?
Girl, you've got to be my woman, I've got to be your man
[Verse 3]
'Cause I can't get by without you
I need you more each day
The way I feel about you
Leaves nothing more to say
'Cause I love you, girl, I need you
And I can't get by without you, no way
[Verse 4]
It's a sad affair
Wasting precious time that you and I could share
Girl, it's such a crime to hear you call my name
It's a crying shame
When we're not together there is only time to blame
[Verse 5]
There will come a day
Girl, I do believe it's not too far away
When I can say goodnight and still be by your side
To dry the tears you cried
And I'll have all the love I need to keep me satisfied
[Verse 6]
'Cause I can't get by without you
I need you more each day
The way I feel about you
Leaves nothing more to say
'Cause I love you, girl, I need you
And I can't get by without you, no way
[Verse 7]
I can't get by without you
I need you more each day
The way I feel about you
Leaves nothing more to say
'Cause I love you, girl, I need you
And I can't get by without you, no way
[Verse 8]
I can't get by without you, baby, no way
I can't get by, no, no, no way, no way
The more I see you, the more I want you, baby (No way)
Oh yes I do, no way
Can't get by without you, no, no (No way)
Baby I, I , can't do it alone (No way)
Oh yes I do, yes I do (No way)
No way
