There's a longing in me, 
Kind of like a thirst I can't cease,
There's this loneliness in me I can't seem to ease,
Could you be the one I need?

How would it feel to be your wife/
Just for a day,
Just for a night,
Would we wake up the same?
Would you heart still be the same,
Or do your feelings easily change,
In this life I can't see my love with another man,
Maybe I'm all wrong and love is playing a new game,

There's a longing in me, 
Kind of like a thirst I can't cease,
There's this loneliness in me I can't seem to ease,
Could you be the one I need?

I've handed in my resignation,
I don't have time for love games,
My heart has grown old,
I need nothing more than a warm heart,
And a companion to hold,
I've had my fair share of aches and pain,
I don't have anything else to lose,

There's a longing in me, 
Kind of like a thirst I can't cease,
There's this loneliness in me I can't seem to ease,
Could you be the one I need?

Fate has put you here,
At a point when I was lost,
Just needed some direction, 
You were here when all I needed was affection,
So if you're no longer meant to reside by me,
Then all I desire is your happiness,
Whether or not it resides with me,
That has been the role I played,
Just here willing and ready to please,

There's a longing in me, 
Kind of like a thirst I can't cease,
There's this loneliness in me I can't seem to ease,
Could you be the one I need?

In this life nothing is guranteed,
Nor is it perfect,
Somehow in you I found a simplistic perfection,
Maybe you were god's gift,
There is much to be unsure,
Life was never easy but this love for you was,

There's a longing in me, 
Kind of like a thirst I can't cease,
There's this loneliness in me I can't seem to ease,
Could you be the one I need?
