I Need You Lyrics

Every time I see you
When you're out with someone new
You really break my heart in pieces
With the things you do, yeah

Every time I see you
You're out with someone new
But I love you, you, you
I love you

When I'm six foot underground
My heart it can be found
Inside of you, you, you

You tell me that you love me
But you always treat me bad
Why you want to make me sad
Treat me bad x 2

You say you really love me
And it's all a big mistake
You tell me that you love me
My heart it's going to break

You tell me that you love me
And it's all a big mistake
But I love you, you, you
And I love you
When I'm six foot underground
My heart it can be found inside of you, you, you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
