In Need Lyrics
Every night I dream you're next to me
Tenderly
You say my name
You stay close enough to keep me here
Then disappear
When we're face to face
[Chorus]
And if you carry me tonight
I would be strong enough to fight
And when you're weak and can't go on
I'd be the bed you lay upon
And blue is blue
And so am I
'Cause I want to be with you tonight
And you're not the only one in need
You know everybody's watching me
And what they see
Is me watching you
In the middle, time is creeping by
And I wonder why
You're so removed [Chorus]
Come on baby
Life is just a net into which you dive
And I'm getting
Closer to you now
If I love you
Will you run away
And if I stay
Will I disappear
[Chorus]
Tenderly
You say my name
You stay close enough to keep me here
Then disappear
When we're face to face
And if you carry me tonight
I would be strong enough to fight
And when you're weak and can't go on
I'd be the bed you lay upon
And blue is blue
And so am I
'Cause I want to be with you tonight
And you're not the only one in need
And what they see
Is me watching you
In the middle, time is creeping by
And I wonder why
You're so removed [Chorus]
Life is just a net into which you dive
And I'm getting
Closer to you now
Will you run away
And if I stay
Will I disappear

The first person, singer, is desiring someone she doesn't have. Yet. But, if they'd only realize how much good they could provide the singer and vice versa they would come and be with her. As the song progresses, the singer gets closer to netting their prey and wonders if they will run away. And if the loved one does stay, will the singer just disappear?
