You know I miss you now that you're really gone Life is sad livin' alone I wish I had someone to share the darkness Don't do no good to play them ol' songs Just makes me drink and cry all night long How long will my hurtin' go on I need somebody new Oh she used to know my feelin's just by touchin' me And love was so bright in her eyes the whole world could see I remember when her words and her lips were warm and soft I need someone to take up where she left off She quit smilin' in my direction She didn't want no night time affection Seems we just lost love's connection I wish I knew why You know it hurts a man a whole lot After you give it all you got Then she says she would rather not Give her love to you anymore She used to know my feelin's just by touchin' me And love was so bright in her eyes the whole world could see I remember when her words and her lips were so warm so soft I need someone to take up where she left off Don'tcha know I'm needin' someone to take up where she left off
