I need to find someone to call my own 

and love before I go.

I need to find someone to hold me close 

and love before I go.

I’ll have my pick of one sharp and quick

or someone smooth and slow.

Not just anyone, especially someone to love before I go.

Someone to turn me to the right from wrong

and to dig me up when I’ve been buried too long.

Someone who loves all the love she makes

a high-balling baby who’s got no brakes.

Who can turn me over when my bad side is showing

and bottle me up when I get too low and

power me up and get my engines going 

and love before I go.
