[Verse 1]
Well, I need some woman
To stand by, to stand by for me
Well, I need some woman
To stand by, to stand by for me
And I'm so, so tired of
Sleeping by, sleeping by myself

[Verse 2]
I've been alone so long
Got to change, got to change my ways
I've been alone so long
Got to change, got to change my ways
I wanna love some woman
Better'n I love, better'n I love myself

[Verse 3]
I went down to the ocean
Sat down by, sat down by the sea
I went down to the ocean
Sat down by, sat down by the sea
But the waves and the water
Would not give, would not give me peace
