Need for Wanting

[Verse 1]
I came here tonight not lookin' for no one, just tryin' to catch my breath
'Cause lately my world has been crumblin' around me and sometimes it scares me to death
So thanks for the whiskey and the lingerin’ glances, but your chances aren't lookin' too bright
I'll entertain you, but don't misinterpret my need for wanting tonight

[Verse 2]
You look like a lesson I learned long ago, and I know more than I care to say
'Bout how men like you will work on a woman 'til you win or she walks away
So the longer I sit here, the more you believe that you've convinced me that it'd be all right
But I'm leavin' alone so you shouldn't mistake my need for wanting tonight

[Verse 3]
It's last call, friend, and I've enjoyed the evenin' so much that I'm leavin' my car
You can call me a cab or you can give me a lift - it's a short drive, I don't live that far
Call this what you will, just don't call me tomorrow - I leave your mind once I'm out of your sight
But if you'd like, come in, since you understand my need for wanting tonight
