Tough by nature
And strong to the core
Had all the fight in my heart
But nothing to fight for
I always thought I was better off on my own
I didn't know I was half
Until she made me whole
Like a wave needs a beach
To break from the rolling
Like a sinner needs forgiveness
Cause without it he's hopeless
Like a ship needs a lighthouse
To know where it's going
Oh a man needs a woman
Soft to the touch
And moves with grace
When she gives her love
It takes your breathe away
I always thought I was better off on my own
But what I never needed
Now I could never let go
Like a wave needs a beach
To break from the rolling
Like a sinner needs forgiveness
Cause without it he's hopeless
Like a ship needs a lighthouse
To know where it's going
Oh a man needs a woman
Oh how I need you
Oh how I need
Oh I need you
Like a wave needs a beach
To break from the rolling
Like a sinner needs forgiveness
Cause without it he's hopeless
Like a ship needs a lighthouse
To know where it's going
Oh a man needs a woman
Oh a man needs a woman
Oh a man needs a woman
