I Need You
Yearning Echoes: Finding Solace in 'I Need You' by Chance C. Cheeney
Lyrics
I saw you the other day
I observed you recently
You looked sad sad to me
You appeared sad to me
I'm crying hard
I am crying intensely
I could feel your pain
I sensed your pain
Oh what a shame
Expressing sorrow for the unfortunate situation
Wish you would just
Desire for the person to release their emotions
Let it drain
Encouraging the person to let their emotions flow
I've played my part of the game
Played a role in the relationship
Set down and dealt my cards
Took part in the challenges and situations
I lost again
Faced defeat in the situation
And I can't help to think
Reflecting on thoughts about someone
About you
Specifically thinking about you
Well it's the only thing right now
Currently, this is the only comforting thought
That's is getting me through
Emphasizing dependence on thoughts of the person
I need you
Expressing a strong need for the person
I try to express my sympathy
Attempting to convey empathy
And all I get is agony
Receiving only pain or distress in return
I don't want you to feel this way
Not wanting the person to feel distressed
I just want you to have
Wishing for the person to have a better day
A brighter day
Desiring a brighter future for the person
I played my part of the game
Played a role in the relationship (repeated)
Sat down and dealt my cards
Took part in the challenges and situations (repeated)
I lost again
Faced defeat in the situation (repeated)
And I can't help but think
Continuing to think about the person
About you
Specifically thinking about you (repeated)
Well it's the only thing right now
Currently, this is the only comforting thought (repeated)
That's getting me through
Emphasizing dependence on thoughts of the person (repeated)
I need you
Expressing a strong need for the person (repeated)
I need you
-And I can't help to think
Continuing to think about the person (repeated)
About you
Specifically thinking about you (repeated)
Well it the only thing right now
Currently, this is the only comforting thought (repeated)
That's getting me through
Emphasizing dependence on thoughts of the person (repeated)
I need you
Expressing a strong need for the person (repeated)
I need you
