Carpenters - I Need To Be In Love lyrics

The hardest thing i've ever done Is keep believing There's someone in this crazy world For me The way that people come and go Thru temporary lives My chance could come and i might never know I used to say "no promises, Let's keep it simple" But freedom only helps you say Good-bye It took a while for me to learn That nothin' comes for free The price i've paid is high enough for me (*) i know i need to be in love I know i've wasted too much time I know i ask perfection of A quite imperfect world And fool enough to think that's What i'll find So here i am with pockets full Of good intentions But none of them will comfort me Tonight I'm wide awake at four a.m. Without a friend in sight Hanging on a hope but i'm alright Repeat twice (*)
