What I Really Need is You
Soulful Yearning: Craving Love's Embrace with Black Cat Biscuit
Lyrics
Well I need your love
Expressing a desire for love
just like a cold hand needs a glove
Comparing the need for love to a cold hand needing a glove
It's true
Acknowledging the truth
Baby, what I really need is you
Affirming the need for the person addressed
Well I don't need your money
Stating a lack of interest in material wealth
I just need you to call me your honey
Desiring affectionate terms of endearment
It's true
Reiterating the truth of the emotional need
Baby, what I really need is you
Emphasizing the fundamental need for the person
You know I did my best to try to treat you right
Expressing effort in treating the person right
Just as long as you stay by my side, alright
Condition for maintaining a positive relationship
And as long as I can play my blues
Linking the ability to play blues to the presence of the person
Baby, what I really need is you
Reaffirming the central need for the person
I love your lips
Expressing admiration for the person's lips
I love your hips
Expressing admiration for the person's hips
I love your smile
Expressing admiration for the person's smile
I love that style
Expressing admiration for the person's style
It's true
Reiterating the truth of the emotional need
Baby, what I really need is you.
Emphasizing the fundamental need for the person
