You

Marvin Gaye



You, you I see in my mirror in the mornin'

Instead of seein' me

I see you, I see your face

And inside me is a growing need for your embrace

In the light of day, though our faces meet

Someone there might see someone else speak

Till the dark of night, while the moon is new

While we whisper words of love in our secret rendezvous

Somethin's wrong I know, girl I love you so

Yes I need you, I need you baby



Oh you, my sweetest joy

You can afford the best of life

I'm just a heartbreakin' boy

Oh you've given your love to me

Girl, I can't let you hurt yourself by being seen with me

We're worlds apart, so close yet very far

So we must hide the love we're feelin' in our hearts

We meet in shadows, your friends must never know

That we are lovers, darlin'

Alhough it hurts me so, for your sake no one must see

The press of love you're givin' me

But you know, I need you baby



One day I'll make the break, my love will start to shine

I can tell the world that you are mine, all mine

Till then we must go on the way we have before

And never let it show without each other's souls

I'll never one-way track 'cause there's no turnin' back

Oh I need you baby



(repeat verse 1 and fade)
