That's why I'm telling you in song
There's only one way to get ahead
You've got to give it up instead
Start all over again.”

She needs to hear I love you.
Somewhere other than the night
She needs to know you care.
She wants to know she's needed,
She needs to be held tight
Somewhere other than the night.”
