I Need You
Marc Anthony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the day that I met you, girl
I knew that your love would be
Everything that I ever wanted in my life
From the moment you spoke my name
I knew everything had changed
Because of you I felt my life would be complete

Oh baby, I need you
For the rest of my life, girl
I need you
To make everything right, girl
I love you
And I'll never deny that
I need you

Nothing matters but you, my love
And only God above
Could be the one to know exactly how I feel
I could die in your arms right now
Knowing that you somehow
Would take my soul and keep it
Deep inside your heart

Oh baby, I need you
For the rest of my life, girl
I need you
To make everything right, girl
I love you
And I'll never deny that
I need you

Girl, your love to me feels just like magic
When you smile you have total control
You have power like nothing I felt before
I've let all of my feelings show
'Cause I want you to know
That I need you

I need you
For the rest of my life, girl
I need you
Say that you'll be my wife
Oh, I love you
Won't you marry me, marry me
I need you

Oh, I need you
For the rest of my life
Oh, I need you
Won't you marry me, marry me
I love you
I really need you, baby
I need you
Girl, I really need, I need you
Girl, I really need, I need you
Need you, baby

Oh, baby
I love you

I need you, girl I really need you, need you
Babe, oh baby
Won't you marry me
Won't you marry me, marry me




I love you
Oh, I need you
