Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad Lyrics
It's a game I just can't win
There you are breathin' soft on my skin, yeah
Still you won't let me in
So come on
Baby let the moment take your heart away
Have you ever needed someone so bad, yeah
Have you ever wanted someone
You just couldn't have
Did you ever try so hard
That your world just fell apart
Have you ever needed someone so bad
I gotta have you baby
But they're broken by the dawn
You want to go further, faster every day, baby
But in the morning you'll be gone
And I'm alone
Baby let the moment take your heart away
Some kind of rash 'n' reckless scene
To give out such crazy love
You must be some kind of drug
And if my time don't ever come
For me you're still the one
Damned if I don't, damned if I do
I gotta get a fix on you
I gotta have you baby

I'm only 16 years old. I don't know what love is, but this time in a child's life, you are meant to search for it. Maybe, I'll never know what true love is, but I have needed someone so bad. Girls I know I could never have walk right past me on a daily basis, and they don't even stop to look my direction. As they walk away, they have no idea my heart is leaving with them. Maybe it is not love, but to answer Def Leppard's question, yes I have needed someone so bad.

"Have you ever wanted someone you just couldn't have?"
Yes. I have.

Although the point of the song is to be heart wrenching, it is pretty much a love song.
The author of the song has put into words how much he needs this woman and is likening the pain of being away from her to wanting someone they couldn't have. Joe's emotion when he sings it does this theme justice. Thus, the song ends with the lines that aren't the chorus:
"And you're the girl I gotta have I gotta have you baby, yeah"

I'm only 22, but Def Leppard was the first band I fell in love with thanks to my parents always listening to them my whole life. There is just something about songs like this that they make. It just grabs a hold of those looming memories you try to bury everyday, but know will never leave you. I can't help but think of my ex girlfriend whenever I hear this. Sure, other girls have and will come along, but none of them could ever offer the deep passion I did and will always feel for this woman. To answer your question yes, I have needed someone so bad, and she tears my world apart every day that I have to see her and pretend I don't love her. She's "the girl I gotta have. I gotta have you baby."

it very good

It’s-a heart wrenching story of two people who are deeply in love but cannot be together for whatever reason. Perhaps the reference to the wrong bed indicates he is married. It’s that want. The need you feel throughout your body where you can’t breathe when you think of this person. He’s damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t. The pain is very real. This song is so very meaningful to me. I understand every word and I know the pain.
