Like a desert needs rain

Like a town needs a name

I need your love

Like a drifter needs a room

Hawkmoon, I need your love

I need your love

Like a rhythm unbroken

Like drums in the night

Like sweet soul music

Like sunlight, I need your love

Like coming home

And you don't know where you've been

Like black coffee

Like nicotine

I need your love (I need your love)

I need your love (I need your love)

I need your love (I need your love)

When the night has no end

And the day yet to begin

As the room spins around

I need your love

I need your love

Like a Phoenix rising needs a holy tree

Like the sweet revenge of a bitter enemy

I need your love

Like the hot needs the sun

Like honey on her tongue

Like the muzzle of a gun

Like oxygen

I need your love (I need your love)

I need your love (I need your love)

I need your love (I need your love)

When the night has no end

And the day yet to begin

As the room spins around

I need your love

I need your love

Like thunder needs rain

Like a preacher needs pain

Like tongues of flame

Like a sheet stained

I need your love

I need your love

Like a needle in a vein

Like someone to blame

Like a thought unchained

Like a runaway train

I need your love

I need your love

Like faith needs a doubt

Like a freeway out

I need your love

Like powder needs a spark

Like lies need the dark

I need your love
