I Just Needed You To Know Lyrics
I remember I would drive 95 in the middle of the night just to see you
I would say, "For goodness' sake could this car go faster?"
I'd curse things in between that slowed me down
You were home talking to me on the phone saying "Patience makes this last, Dear"
And you were cool as you could be but inside you were aching for me
When I pulled into your little town you were standing on the sidewalk waiting in your nightgown
Do you remember lying in the grass?
We were there so long I swear I saw it grow
That was when I knew our love would last
Because we can wait it out, the winter and the snow
Well, I just needed you to know
We packed everything we had and a blanket in a bag for the weekend
And you'd say "The perfect getaway is just what we've needed"
But oh man when we got there not a hotel in town had a room to spare
Do you remember driving home that night?
We sang our favorite songs along the radio
And it was heaven being by your side
We made the best of every chance we had alone
And now I just needed you to know
This life is ours for worse or better
And these dreams we'll dream along together
Because this world is ours to share forever
And everything I do will be because of you
Everything
It is so clear to me that this was meant to be
Do you remember when watching fireworks?
While we looked into the sky I made my plans
I did my best to put my love in words
When I knelt down at your feet and took your hand
Do you remember how it felt that night?
Knowing then and there was where we'd start to grow
You see I just needed you to know
I would say, "For goodness' sake could this car go faster?"
I'd curse things in between that slowed me down
You were home talking to me on the phone saying "Patience makes this last, Dear"
And you were cool as you could be but inside you were aching for me
When I pulled into your little town you were standing on the sidewalk waiting in your nightgown
We were there so long I swear I saw it grow
That was when I knew our love would last
Because we can wait it out, the winter and the snow
Well, I just needed you to know
And you'd say "The perfect getaway is just what we've needed"
But oh man when we got there not a hotel in town had a room to spare
We sang our favorite songs along the radio
And it was heaven being by your side
We made the best of every chance we had alone
And now I just needed you to know
And these dreams we'll dream along together
Because this world is ours to share forever
And everything I do will be because of you
Everything
While we looked into the sky I made my plans
I did my best to put my love in words
When I knelt down at your feet and took your hand
Do you remember how it felt that night?
Knowing then and there was where we'd start to grow
You see I just needed you to know

Oh gosh... Concert's tomorrow and I still don't know the words to this song! What if they play it?
By the way, in the last paragraph/stanza thing, it's "As we looked...", not "While we looked...".
So, basically, the song's just about remembering the old times, and him wanting to remind his love that he loves her.
Lovely song.
The guitar just gives me that feeling where you like, slowly move your head along to the beat... You know?
Hm. I copied the lyrics straight from those in the digital booklet, so they screwed up their own lyrics.
I think it's a great start to (e)vening, and I can honestly say I've enjoyed it more than the (a)fternoon batch of songs.
This may currently be my new favorite song. It's so easy to find music to listen to when you're down, but this is an awesome song for those happy thankful moments. Not always easy to come by.
