I Need You To Be In My Life



Here I stand

alone in this huge world

needing a hand

to hold real tight
as the earth begins to revolve

What I need is you

What I need is you


I want you to be in my life

I need you to be in my life
Your presence means everything to me
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine

As I walk on the shadow filled streets
and on the green hills in the park

I ask why I’m not alright

But I know the answer why
It’s ‘cause you are not mine

What I need is you

What I need is you

I want you to be in my life
I need you to be in my life
Your presence means everything to me
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine

I want you to be in my life
I need you to be in my life
Your presence means everything to me
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine

As the leaves begin to fall
and as the rain turns into ice
as the flowers begin the bloom
and as our feet begin to burn
we’ll be still holding hands tightly
No one could put us into place

if only you take my hand

I want you to be in my life
I need you to be in my life
Your presence means everything to me
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine

I want you to be in my life
I need you to be in my life
Your presence means everything to me
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine



Here I stand
alone in this huge world

needing a hand

to hold real tight
as the earth begins to revolve

This song is clearly a great piece!

I think many people can relate to it. Everyone has wanted someone they can't have for various reasons. Keep writing.

This one clearly comes out to be a song, so some of whether or not it sounds good depends on the beat and the music you use. However, some of the images you use are constantly said to portray the seasons - I think personally, if you "showed" the passing seasons - like you do w/ summer (I'm taking "as our feet begin to burn" to mean summer), it would add interest to the poem. If you want to talk about the flower, you could describe it in more detail, or from the bee's point of view - still only taking one line, but providing a clear image that the reader can latch onto, so to speak. It's a good song, though, and it definitely conveys your emotion and longing for the girl.
