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