I Need You Tonight Lyrics

It's three o'clock in the morning
And the rain began to fall
I know what I need
'Cause I don't have it all

I'm needing someone like you
That I can do love to
Baby, baby
I need you tonight

Outside my window
It's lonely and cold
Inside my heart there's a fire
Burning out of control

Burning for someone like you
I just wanna do love to
Baby, baby
I need you tonight

Your love is coming to me
Like a wolf howlin' at the moon
But that just won't do me
'Cause I can't get you soon

I'm callin' for someone like you
That I can do love to
Baby, baby
I need you tonight
I need you tonight

Callin', callin', callin', callin'
Honey, I need you tonight

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
