LL Cool J I Need Love
---------------------------------------------------------------------
F Em
When I'm alone in my room, sometimes I stare at the wall
C
And in the back of my mind, I hear my conscience call
F Em
Telling me I need a girl who's as sweet as a dove
C
For the first time - I can see I need love
F Em
There I was, joking at my games
C
So many hearts and I'm saying no names
F Em
A thought occurred, tears made my eyes burn
C
As I said to myself look what you've done to her
F Em
I can feel it inside, I can't explain how it feels
C
All I know is I'll never dish another raw deal
F Em
Playing make believe, pretending that I'm true
C
Holding in my laugh as I say I love you
F Em
Sayin' amor, whispering in your ear
C
Saying I love you, I'll always be here
F Em
And though I often reminisce I can't believe that I found
C
Desire for true love floating around
F Em
Inside my soul because my soul is cold
C
Half of me deserves to be this way until I'm old
F Em
But the other half needs affection and joy and the warmth
C F Em C
That is created 'tween a girl and a boy I need love
F Em
Romance, sheer delight how sweet
C
I gotta find me a girl to make my life complete
F Em
Scratch my back, we'll get cozy and huddle
C
I would lay down my jacket, you could walk in a puddle
F Em
I'll give you a rose, pull out your chair 'fore we eat
C
Kiss you on the cheek, Oh girl ! You're so sweet
F Em
It's deja vu whenever I'm with you
C
I could go on forever tellin you what I'd do

F Em
But where you are, you're neither here or there
C F Em
I can't find you anywhere you're not in my closet or under my rug
C
This searching for love is really making me bug
F Em
So if you know who you are why don't you make yourself seen
C
Take a chance with my love you'll see what I mean
F Em
Fantasies can run, but they can't hide
C F Em C
And when I find you I will pour my love inside, I need love
F Em
I wanna kiss you and hold you, never scold you
C
Suck on your neck, caress you and rub you
F Em
Cry and moan, you'll never be alone
C
If you're standing next to me, or on the phone
F Em
Can't you hear it in my voice? I need love bad
C
I got money, but love's something I never had
F Em
I need your ruby red lips sweet face and all
C
I'd love you more than the man who's ten feet tall
F Em
I'd watch the sunrise in your eyes
C
We're so in love, that when we hug, I feel paralyzed
F Em
Our bodies explode in ectasy unreal
C
You're as soft as a pillow, I'm as hard as steel
F Em
It's a dream, I can't lie, I've never been there
C
This is an experience you and me can share
F Em
Clean and unsoiled, yet sweaty and wet
C F Em C
I swear to you this is something I'll never forget, I need love
F Em
See I've changed, I'm no longer, a play boy on the run
C F
I need something that's stronger friendship, trust, respect and
Em C
Admiration, this whole experience is such a revelation
F Em
It taught me love and how to be a real man
C
To be considerate and do all that I can
F Em
To protect you, you're my lady and you mean so much
C
My body tingles all over from the slightest touch
F Em
Of your hand and understand I'll be frozen in time
C
Till we meet face to face and you tell me you're mine
F Em
When I find you, I swear, I'll be a good man
C
I'm not gonna leave it in destiny's hands
F Em
I can't sit and wait for my princess to arrive
C
I gotta struggle and fight to keep my dream alive
F Em
I'll search the whole world for that special girl and
C F Em C
When I finally found you, watch our love unfurl, I need love
