I Need You More Now Than Ever Lyrics by Eddie Kendricks

The Thin Man (The Motown Solo Albums, Vol. 2)

2006

[Verse 1]
You're the sun that shines when clouds are in the way
You're the light of love to brighten up each and every day
You care, ah, when no one cares at all
And you'll be there when I need ya, all I have to do is call

[Chorus]
That's why I need you more now than ever
I need you more as the days go by
I need you more, more now than ever
Ah, without your love, I couldn't live and I wouldn't even try

[Verse 2]
You're the birds that sing, you bring a love song to me
You're the sweetest rose that will ever be
You'll make the world seem right when everything has gone wrong
And when I'm weak, oh, only you could make me strong

[Chorus]
That's why I need you more now than ever
I need you more as the days go by
I need you more, more now than ever
Ah, without your love, I couldn't live and I wouldn't even try

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Ooh, you softly whisper nicknames that only you would know
I'll never, never hear again if you should ever go

[Chorus]
That's why I need you more now than ever
I need you more as the days go by
I need you more, more now than ever
Ah, without your love, I couldn't live and I wouldn't even try

[Outro]
Oh, without your love, I couldn't live, I'd rather die
Oh, without your love, I couldn't live and I wouldn't even try
Oh-oh-oh, without your love, I couldn't live
