I Need Love - LL Cool J (full lyrics) When I\u0027m alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call Telling me I need a girl who\u0027s as sweet as a dove For the first time in my life, I see I need love There I was giggling about the games That I had played with many hearts, and I\u0027m not saying no names Then the thought occurred, tear drops made my eyes burn As I said to myself, \u0022Look what you\u0027ve done to her.\u0022 I can feel it inside, I can\u0027t explain how it feels All I know is that I\u0027ll never dish another raw deal Playing make-believe pretending that I\u0027m true Holding in my laugh as I say that I love you Saying, \u0022Amor,\u0022 kissing you on the ear Whispering, \u0022I love you and I\u0027ll always be here.\u0022 Although I often reminisce I can\u0027t believe that I found A desire for true love floating around Inside my soul because my soul is cold One half of me deserves to be this way \u0027til I\u0027m old But the other half needs affection and joy And the warmth that is created by a girl and a boy I need love I need love Romance, sheer delight, how sweet? I gotta find me a girl to make my life complete You can scratch my back, we\u0027ll get cozy and huddle I\u0027ll lay down my jacket so you can walk over a puddle I\u0027ll give you a rose, pull out your chair before we eat Kiss you on the cheek and say, \u0022Ooh girl, you\u0027re so sweet.\u0022 It\u0027s d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu whenever I\u0027m with you I could go on forever telling you what I do But where you at? You\u0027re neither here or there I swear I can\u0027t find you anywhere Damn sure you ain\u0027t in my closet, or under my rug This love search is really making me bug And if you know who you are why don\u0027t you make yourself seen? Take the chance with my love and you\u0027ll find out what I mean Fantasies can run, but they can\u0027t hide And when I find you I\u0027m gon\u0027 pour all my love inside I need love I need love I wanna kiss you, hold you, never scold, you just love you Suck on your neck, caress you and rub you Grind, moan and never be alone If you\u0027re not standing next to me you\u0027re on the phone Can\u0027t you hear it in my voice? I need love bad I\u0027ve got money, but love\u0027s something I\u0027ve never had I need your ruby red lips sweet face and all I love you more than a man who\u0027s ten-feet tall I\u0027d watch the sunrise in your eyes We\u0027re so in love when we hug we become paralyzed Our bodies explode in ecstasy unreal You\u0027re as soft as a pillow and I\u0027m as hard as steel It\u0027s like a dream land, I can\u0027t lie, I never been there Maybe this is an experience that me and you can share Clean and unsoiled yet sweaty and wet I swear to you this is something I\u0027ll never forget I need love I need love See what I mean? I\u0027ve changed, I\u0027m no longer A playboy on the run, I need something that\u0027s stronger Friendship, trust, honor, respect, admiration This whole experience has been such a revelation It\u0027s taught me love and how to be a real man To always be considerate and do all I can Protect you, you\u0027re my lady and you mean so much My body tingles all over from the slightest touch Of your hand and understand I\u0027ll be frozen in time \u0027Til we meet face to face and you tell me you\u0027re mine If I find you, girl, I swear I\u0027ll be a good man I\u0027m not gonna leave it in destiny\u0027s hands I can\u0027t sit and wait for my princess to arrive I gotta struggle and fight to keep my dream alive I\u0027ll search the whole world for that special girl When I finally find you watch our love unfurl I need love I need love Girl, listen to me. When I be sitting in my room all alone, staring at the wall Fantasies, they go through my mind, and I\u0027ve come to realize that I need true love And if you wanna give it to me, girl, make yourself seen. I\u0027ll be waiting I love you
