I know you'll never love me like I want you to
You've hurt me so often I expect you to
And I've made up my mind to stop my loving you
But I can't let you go till I stop needing you.

I can't stop my arms a reaching out for you
There's a need in me that only you can fill
You know every way to keep me wanting you
I can't let you go till I stop needing you.

There's no way to count the tears I've cried for you
You'll never know the hell that you've put me through
I've made up my mind to stop my loving you
But I can't let you go till I stop needing you.

I can't stop my arms a reaching out for you
There's a need in me that only you can fill
You know every way to keep me wanting you
I can't let you go till I stop needing you.

I can't let you go till I stop needing you...
