i need love...

it's 1987, again and i am 15 years old...wanting something, needing something...this guy named james todd smith said something that spoke to me...


There I was giggling about the games
That I had played with many hearts,
and I'm not saying no names
Then the thought occured,
tear drops made my eyes burn
As I said to myself
"look what you've done to her"
I can feel it inside,
I can't explain how it feels
All I know is
that I'll never dish another raw deal
Playing make believe,
pretending that I'm true
Holding in my laugh
as I say that I love you
Saying "amor",
kissing you on the ear
Whispering "I love you"
and "I'll always be here"
Although I often reminsce
I can't believe that I found
A desire for true love floating around
Inside my soul
because my soul is cold
One half of me
deserves to be this way till I'm old
But the other half
needs affection and joy
And the warmth that is created
by a girl and a boy

I need love
