I Need Love
Words and Music by Shane Burroughs
I wonder as I arise from my affair
Heartache feeding on clean memories
Of security and the smell of your hair wash over me
I spew sex from a desperate bed
Try to believe half of the lies I just said
This bare need professed our love is retired
I'm feeling on empty, I guess I'm just tired
And I need love, Oh and I need love
The body of a promiscuous friend
Leads me on toward her examination
And later my own, as often they do
When relations are all that you come here to do
And I walk to the car, I know it's about
The pressuring the passion out
A relative stranger for my only love
Has cheated me out of the one thing I dreamed of
And I need love, oh and I need love
