I just had to hear your voice You've always been my rock The one that puts me back together On my way around the block Yeah, I'm a late night phone call An ear that you can bend The sister you never had Your lover and your closest friend And it breaks my heart I'll never be what you need from me Oh I've tried (I've tried) and failed I've prayed (I've prayed) like hell To change (to change) but I can't change (I can't change) I'll let you down 'cause I'm still the same And I can't be (no I can't be) what you need from me You need a trophy on your arm So you don't look so lonely Someone to get you through the night Someone to start your morning coffee You need a man that you can count on Someone who'll finish what he started Not a restless soul who comes and goes And leaves you broken-hearted And it breaks my heart I'll never be what you need from me Oh I've tried (I've tried) and failed I've prayed (I've prayed) like hell To change (to change) but I can't change (no, I can't change) I'll let you down 'cause I'm still the same And I can't be (no I can't be) what you need from me I've tried, I've failed I've prayed like hell But I can't be (no I can't be) what you need from me What you need from me What you need from me
