Lyrics

Whoa, I need a man to love me
Don't you understand me, baby?
Why I need a man to love
I gotta find him, I gotta have him like the air I breathe
One lovin' man to understand can't be too much to need
You know it
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me
No, no, no, it just can't be (no, it just can't be)
There's got to be some kind of answer (no, it just can't be)
And everywhere I look, there's none around (no, it just can't be)
Whoa, it can't be
No, it just can't be, oh no!
Whoa-whoa, hear me now
Whoa, won't you let me hold you?
Honey, just close your eyes
Whoa-whoa-whoa, won't you let me hold you, dear?
I want to just put my arms around you, like the circles are goin' 'round the sun
Let me hold you, daddy, at least until the morning comes because it
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me
No, no, no, it just can't be (no, it just can't be)
Oh, baby, baby, baby, just can't be
No, no, no (no, it just can't be)
And why didn't anyone ever tell me now? (No, it just can't be)
I wake up one morning, I realize (no, it just can't be)
Whoa, it can't be (no, it just can't be)
Now go!
Whoa, I need a man to love me
Oh, maybe you can help me, please
Why, I need a man to love
But I believe that someday, and somehow it is bound to come along
Because when all my dreams and all my plans just cannot turn out wrong, you know it
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be now (oh, no)
Can't be just loneliness
Baby, surrounding me
No, no, no, it just can't be (no, it just can't be)
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, it just can't be (no, it just can't be)
And who could be foolin' me? (No, it just can't be)
I've got all this happiness (no, it just can't be)
Come, come, come on, come on, come on, and help me now (no, it just can't be)
Please, can't you hear me cry? (No, it just can't be)
Whoa, help
