I love you Jay

I just need you baby, baby, baby
You ain't been coming round lately, lately, lately
Yeah you can't escape me, shame me, 'cause baby
You ain't been here lately, lately, lately
You wanna go around the world, searching for any girl
Just gotta give me ur word
Cause I don't wanna be a burden
If this ain't working

I don't wanna be hurting cause it's just flirting
Do not disturb me, if you're just gonna curve me
Move Around and just leave, I don't wanna be another link
Yeah I'm learning observing this knowledge
Patterns don't you got options

Baby, it's time we stop talking, maybe it's time you move on then
You must think I'm stupid, you must think I'm foolish
Already been through this, keep on dreaming lucid
I don't really need you now...
So you can keep from coming around

You Just need me baby, baby, baby
Yeah I know your craving, craving, craving
But you cannot play me, play me, play me
Yeah you need me baby, baby, baby

You ain't gonna have my heart breaking, breaking, breaking
When you had me waiting, waiting, waiting
You wanna go around the world
You wanna go around the wo
You wanna go around the world (you wanna go around the)
You must think I'm stupid

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Keltiey's song "Need" explore the complexities of a rocky relationship that is going through a tough phase. The singer confesses her love for Jay in the very first line, but also admits that she needs him to be there for her. She talks about the hurt she feels because Jay has not been around lately and how it makes her doubt the stability of their relationship. The line "You wanna go around the world, searching for any girl" shows that Jay is not fully committed to their relationship and is perhaps exploring other options.


The singer expresses her desire to not be a burden to Jay and not to force him to stay if things are not working out. However, she also acknowledges that if they continue down this path, it will only lead to more hurt and pain. The chorus emphasizes the fact that both of them need each other, but there is a sense of power dynamic at play, with Jay seemingly having the upper hand. The line "You must think I'm stupid, you must think I'm foolish" likely refers to Jay's lack of commitment and how it makes her feel. The song ends with the singer telling Jay to move on if he needs to, but also asserting her own power by saying, "You just need me baby."


Overall, "Need" is a powerful and emotional song that explores the complexities of relationships and how they can sometimes hurt us even as we crave them.
