She Needs Me
Unveiling Love's Symphony: Marvin Gaye's 'She Needs Me'
Lyrics
I love you i love you
I express my love for you, emphasizing it.
(Woah, I love you)
(Woah, I love you) - An additional emphatic expression of love.
And I need you baby (And you need me too)
Expressing love and stating a mutual need in the relationship.
So no matter where your love goes
Commitment to love regardless of where the partner's affection goes.
And though she doesn't care
Acknowledging that the partner may not reciprocate the same level of care.
(She knows I'm there)
Assuring the partner that presence is known and felt.
'Cause I know how much my baby needs me
Expressing awareness of the partner's needs and the commitment to fulfill them.
Share me (Oh believe, ah sugar)
Encouraging the partner to share and believe in the commitment.
(But she needs me) ooh my sugar
Reiterating the partner's dependence on the speaker.
I guess it isn't very smart of me
Acknowledging a potential lack of wisdom in pursuing the partner.
Following you, tagging along
Admitting to following the partner, possibly without a clear purpose.
But right or wrong
Expressing a commitment to care for the partner, regardless of right or wrong.
I'll take care of you, I'm here
Assuring the partner of constant support and presence.
I'm with you baby
A reaffirmation of being with the partner.
Forever I will be your friend or your lover
Committing to being a friend or lover forever.
Because my one ambition is to (wake up)
Expressing a strong desire to wake up and make the partner realize the commitment.
Oh wake up and make her discover
Reiterating the commitment to make the partner discover the depth of affection.
She needs me so I will go where she leads me
Stating a willingness to follow the partner's lead because she needs the speaker.
And I'll always be there
Committing to always be there for the partner.
Tend to your every care long as she needs
Promising to attend to every need of the partner.
Needs me
Reiteration of the partner's essential need for the speaker.
Ooh my sugar, oh my sugar oh, oh
Expressing affection with endearing terms ("Ooh my sugar").
