Kinda like eighteen wheels need a blacktop

A bad part of town needs a good cop

Kinda like a romantic night needs a sunset

Candlelight and a silhouette need the door

But I need you more

Kinda like a cup of coffee needs the a.m.

Hard times need a good friend

Kinda like a sinners prayer when hopes gone

From a midnight drunk kneeling on a jailhouse floor.

I need you more

Every touch, every kiss, every time

Your lips meet mine

I need you more

Every look my way

Every second of the day that goes by

Even holding you tight in the middle of the night

You say, how much you need me

Baby, believe me

I need you more.

Kinda like a country road needs an old church

Carolina needs a red dirt

Kinda like a daybreak needs a sunrise

Old dogs and rocking chairs need the porch.

I need you more

Every touch, every kiss, every time

Your lips meet mine

I need you more

Every look my way

Every second of the day that goes by

Even holding you tight in the middle of the night

You say, how much you need me

Baby, believe me

I need you more.

Kinda like a stormy night needs a lighthouse

Tall ships and driftwood need the shore.

I need you more

Every touch, every kiss, every time

Your lips meet mine

I need you more

Every look my way

Every second of the day that goes by

Even holding you tight in the middle of the night

You say, how much you need me

Baby, believe me

I need you more.

I need you more

I need you more

I need you more.
