    Need Your Loving Tonight

    by: Queen

    (Album: The Game, 1980)
    "Yeah
    Hey hey hey
    No I'll never look back in anger
    No I'll never find me an answer
    You promised me, you'd keep in touch
    I read your letter and it hurt me so much
    I said I'd never, never be angry with you
    I don't wanna feel like a stranger (no)
    'Cos I'd rather stay out of danger
    I read your letter so many times
    I got your meaning between the lines
    I said I'd never, never be angry with you
    I must be strong so she won't know how much I miss her
    I only hope as time goes on I'll forget her
    My body's aching, can't sleep at night
    I'm too exhausted to start a fight
    And if I see her with another guy
    I'll eat my heart out 'cos I love, love, love, love her
    Come on baby, let's get together
    I'll love you baby, I'll love you forever
    I'm trying hard to stay away
    What made you change, what did I say ?
    Ooh I need your loving tonight
    Ooh I need your loving
    Ooh I need your loving
    Ooh I need your loving babe tonight (Hit me)
    Ooh I need your loving tonight
    No I'll never look back in anger
    No I'll never find me an answer
    Gave me no warning, how could I guess
    I'll have to learn to forgive and forget
    Ooh I need your loving
    Ooh I need your loving
