(Honey, honey)
Now, I may not be the one you want
I may not be the one you want
Your life stands still the minute he goes
(Honey, honey)
And while you're longing for his embrace
You just sit back in a daze and miss him
Oh, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
Now, when the loneliness get hard to take, girl come 'round here
(Honey, honey)
(Honey, honey)
He's out fooling round with somebody else
(Honey, honey)
(Honey, honey)
You're all lonely with the tears on your face
(Honey, honey)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Now the days, the days, the days you sit round by yourself
Now I may not be the one you want
He's just waiting till he has time for you
That I'm the one who loves you so much
But, I'm sure 'nough the one you need
Now when you need the love you never showed, you come 'round here
'Cause you know some other lips, he's been kissing
(Honey, honey)
(Honey, honey)
But I'm sure 'nough the one you need
Oh yeah, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
Now, I may not be the one you want
Girl, can't you see while you're looking for his touch
But I'm sure 'nough the one you need
Say now, I may not be the one you want
You count the hours just hoping he shows
But I know I'm the one you need
(Honey, honey)
(Honey, honey)
(Honey, honey)
And when you need some loving arms to hold, you come 'round here
But, I know, I'm the one you need
Now when you feel the need to cry to someone, cry to me
(Honey, honey)
Leaving you alone here with nothing to do
(Honey, honey)
And when you feel the need to lean on someone, lean on me
(Honey, honey)
And when you need a little tender lover care, girl come 'round here
