I need you, love
I need you, love, I need you
I need you, love, I need you
When I think about how I felt
I just sit there while my ice cream melts
I just put myself upon a shelf
I can't think about nothing else
I need you, love, I need you
I need you, love, I need you
I can't even open a book
Without thinking about Sam Cooke
That's just how strong my love was
And now my heart is just moldy fuzz...
I can't remember things before those days
And I can't forget your face
Nothing here can change those ways
And nothing else can take your place
I need you, love, I need you
I need you, love, I need you
I need you, love, I need you
I need you, love, I need you...

Tale of a familiar old man
He would sit there drinking tea
With a fat cat on his knees to say I remember
Those times when I was young
It a shame time is on the run
But I remember the flavors,
And I remember the colors
Broken backs and broken vans
Stupid jokes, our left arms tanned all that I remember
The food, shelter and kindest hands
I'm so grateful to all of them
I do remember their flavors
And I remember their colors
And if I lie sometimes
It's cause I'm checking my mind
I 'm trying to rewind
To get your face and name right
So if I did forget your names
Your faces curse my brains
The day and time we met eachother
The snacks and laughs we shared together
We're still around today
The most important things will always stay
Remembering the colors
Remembering the flavors
And if I lie sometimes
It's cause I'm checking my mind
I 'm trying to rewind
To get your face and name right
Did you notice that I was trying from the start when we were laughing
I hope not
But does it really matter
If the good is still remembered
He would sit there drinking tea
With a fat cat on his knees to say I remember
Those times when I was young
It a shame time is on the run
But I remember the flavors,
And I remember the colors
The sunrise…there's been plenty
My memory…just isn't as precise as it should be
