Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, ye-ye-yeah
Open up your heart to me
And say what's on your mind, oh, yes
I know that we have been through so much pain
But I still need you in my life this time
[Verse 2]
And I need you tonight
And I need you right now
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
I really need you tonight
[Verse 3]
Oh, I figured out what to say to you
(Mmm-mmm)
Sometimes the words, they, they come out so wrong
Oh, yes, they do
And I know in time that you will understand
That what we have is so right this time
[Verse 4]
And I need you tonight
I need you right now
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
[Verse 5]
All those endless times we tried to make it last forever more
And baby, I know I need you
Oh-oh, yeah
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
I really need you, oh-ho
[Verse 6]
I need you tonight
I need you, oh, I need you baby
I need you right now
It's gotta be this, it's gotta be this
I know deep within my heart
No, it doesn't matter if it's wrong or it's right
All I know is, baby
I really need you tonight
Ooh, ooh, ooh
