I Need You Lyrics - Five Score & Seven Years Ago - Relient K

I've dug up miles and miles of sand 

Searching for something I can't see 

I've just got bruised and battered hands 

And a brand new void inside of me 

Complete with walls, I did create 

From all the earth that I've displaced 

A mess that I have made 

From what I've just let pile and pile up 

I have not been abandoned 

No, I have not been deserted 

And I have not been forgotten 

I need you, I need you here 

I need you now, I need security somehow 

I need you like you would not believe 

You're the only thing I want 

'Cause you're everything, everything I need 

Explore the cave that is my chest 

A torch reveals there's nothing left 

Your whispers echo off the wall 

And you can hear my distant call 

The voice of who I used to be 

Screaming out, "Someone, someone please 

Please shine a light into the black 

Wade through the depths and bring me back" 

I have not been abandoned 

No, I have not been deserted 

And I have not been forgotten 

I need you, I need you here 

I need you now, I need security somehow 

I need you like you would not believe 

You're the only thing I want 

'Cause you're everything, everything I need 

I need you, I need you now 

When my hope seem to dangle 

Somewhere just beyond my reach 

You say you've heard my prayers 

You've read my words there, on the beach 

I need you, I need you here 

I need you now, I need security somehow 

I need you like you would not believe 

You're the only thing I want 

'Cause you're everything, everything 

I need you, I need you here 

I need you now, I need security somehow 

'Cause you're everything, everything, everything 

(I need you, I need you now)
