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  know 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  hear me now
Whoa  won't you let me hold you
Honey  just close your eyes
Whoa  won't you let me hold you  dear

I want to just put my arms around ya  like the circles going '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  baby  just can't be
No  no  no
No it just can't be
And why can'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's 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 my cry
No it just can't be
Whoa  help
