Name: I Need You
Duration: P00H03M00S
Description: A love song for my wife. Musically, this is probably as close to the alt-country/roots rock thing I had been doing for the past few years as this record gets. Which isn't very close actually. Dig those backing vocals tho.

lyrics

The angels up in Heaven
Knew what they were doin’
On the day they led me to you

We started out just talking
Now hand in hand we’re walking
Through the world just we two

I told you that I love you some years ago
I still feel the same way and that’s all you need to know

I need you to hold me in the night
I need you to be my shining light
I need you all the days of my life
I need you, you, you

Well I was such a mess
But I’m better I confess
And I owe all the changes to you

We’ve seen a lot of glad times
Had our share of bad times
And now there’s nothing we can’t make it through

I want to honor you in every way I can
So I make a vow to you to always be your man

I need you to hold me in the night
I need you to be my shining light
I need you forever as my wife
I need you, you, you

And after sixty four years have all come and gone
We’ll be holding out for more years ‘cause you’ll always be the one

I need you to hold me in the night
I need you to be my shining light
I need you all the days of my life
I need you, you, you
