Need You Now Songtext
von Cornelia Jakobs

Blindfolded in the backseat
Always in need of a second opinion to even roll out of bed
So young, yet so many days wasted
Locked away in a haze, spent
Lookin′ at the ceilin' while the day goes by outside

There′s not a tear in my eye, 'cause they dried out
Just like the fire, now I'm empty and cold
Takin′ anythin′ to make me feel whole
And it worked for a minute or two
Then I was back at the bottom, thinkin', "Why am I so blue
Blue all the damn time?"

I need you now
You make me see it from the bright side, yeah
I need you now, ooh
To drain the poison out
Someday, somehow
I′m gonna find all the tools that I need to fight
But I need you now, ooh
Yeah, you might be the only way out


Head spinnin' in the back, be never complete
Anythin′ but opinions of all I should've done instead
So young, yet my heart is not raisin′
Somethin' wrong or maybe I'm just lazy
Busy talkin′ to the walls, tryin′ to decide
Whether I'm dead or alive, it′s a fine line
All of my doctors, they've been talkin′ 'bout you
Like you′re the only thing to cure the blues

Well, I need you now
You make me see it from the bright side, yeah
I need you now, ooh
To drain the poison out
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna find all the tools that I need to fight
But I need you now, ooh
Yeah, you might be the only way out

I was five feet underground when I first saw you
You unveiled my embedded side and brought me a clear view
Suddenly, you had my mind work like it's supposed to
You showed me what it feels like takin′ a breath without a fistfight
I need you now
You make me see it from the bright side, yeah


I need you now
You make me see it from the bright side, yeah
I need you now, ooh
To drain the poison out
Someday, somehow
I′m gonna find all the tools that I need to fight
But I need you now, ooh
Yeah, you might be the only way out

I need you
I need you
I need you now, oh
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna find all the tools that I need to fight
But I need you, I need you
I need you now, ooh
