From the recording Living in the Past Lane
There’s a difference between wanting someone and realizing you genuinely need another person in your life. This song comes from that vulnerable place where independence gives way to honesty. Loneliness has a way of stripping away pride, and “Needing Someone” acknowledges a simple human truth: however strong we think we are, sometimes we just need somebody beside us.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Needing someone isn't a crime
You know, and loving someone, it only takes time
You know, and opening up is easy if you want it to be
And sharing a heart isn't a sin
You know, and caring a lot and everyone wins
You know,,and saying I love you is easy if you want it to be
[Chorus]
I know you need your space
And no commitments to face
Just keep on running the damn race
Did you ever ask yourself why
You let this boy pass you by
[Verse 2]
Well I've got to refra, in and I don't know why
You know it seems like a game just trying to hide
You know hiding is easy if that's where you want me to be
And missing someone, well it hurts like hell
You know, and missing someone, well I think I fell
In love, falling is easy, that's where you want me to be
[Chorus]
I know you need your space
And no commitments to face
Just keep on running the damn race
Did you ever ask yourself why
You let this boy pass you by
[Verse 1 reprise]
Needing someone isn't a crime
You know and loving someone it only takes time
You know, and opening up is easy if you want it to be
