Never Knew How Much (I Needed You)

Time and time again
 I've felt these walls of plaster, closing in
 And more than once I've felt that lonely, lonely feeling
 Wondering why and where I've been
 Just about the time, I think I can't hold on
 You're always there to keep me hanging on and I say
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)
 I never knew how much I needed you
 Day after day, I join the rat race
 Tryin' to make the most of it
 I keep on falling down, down the ladder
 Still trying to stay on top of it
 Just when I was sure
 Nothing could get no better
 Oh, I realize I still love you more than ever
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)
 I never knew how much I needed you
 ♪
 Today I watch the sun set on the freeway
 Strangled on the poison air
 But miles beyond, on the other end
 I know, you'll always be waiting there
 Girl you treat me with your kindest hand
 And in my heart, in my mind
 And I'm so glad
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)
 I never knew how much I needed you
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never)
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (ohh) (no, I never)
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (ohh) (needed a girl)
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (oh-ooh) (no, I never)
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl) (oh)
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (no, I never), yeah
 I never knew how much a boy needed a girl (needed a girl)
 I never knew how much a man needed a woman (ohh) (no, I never)
