I Need a Man Songtext
von Grace Jones

When I′m feelin' lonely
Someone telephone me
It′s gettin' hard to pass my time

Take me out'a dinin′
Watch me while I′m smiling
Baby, it's a waste of time

I need a man, perhaps a man like you
I need a man, to make my dreams come true

Say that you will find him
Creeping up behind him
Ruling round′ the town all day

Well, I'm underestimated
Highly underrated
Can there be another way?

I need a man, perhaps a man like you
I need a man, to make my dreams
And I need a man

And then I won′t be feelin' lonely
Knowing I′m the only one


He'll understand
All that I'm feelin′ deep inside me
Knowing that at last he′s gone

Oh well, oh well
Gettin' tired of lookin′
Wastin' all my cookin′
Ending in a dreadful row

Can somebody tell me
Say to me, or sell me
Why I'm feelin′ lonely? Wow

I need a man, perhaps a man like you
I need a man to make my dreams
And I need a man

And then at night I won't be lonely
Knowing I'm the only one

He′ll understand
All that I′m feelin' deep inside me
Knowing that at last he′s come

It's maybe that I′m dreaming
Can't say they I′ve seen him
Somehow, I just got to find


Someone outstanding
Long enough to hand him
All that I've built up inside

I need a man like you, to make my dreams come true
Perhaps that man is you!
