Oh-yeah, all I need, oh-yeah, all I need
Oh-yeah, all I need, oh-yeah

Oh-yeah, you're all I need
Oh-yeah, all I need, oh-yeah, all I need
Oh-yeah, you're all I need

I've been waiting for a lifeline from you (Oh-oh, hmm-hmm)

Lost in time, hold the memory of the pain before (Oh-oh)
Ooh, I've been blind, but your love's what I've been searchin' for (Oh-oh)

I've been waiting for a lifetime for you (Oh-oh, hmm-hmm)
I've been waiting for a lifeline from you (Oh-oh, hmm-hmm)
[Chorus]
Oh-yeah, all I need, oh-yeah, all I need
Oh-yeah, I'm on my knees, all I
I've been waiting for a lifetime for you (Oh-oh, hmm-hmm)
