about

This is a cover by The Smoking Popes. I've always found this song infectiously melodious and just wanted to girl group/doo wop the shit out of it.

lyrics

If I could see.
Into your heart.
Then I would know.
Just where to start.
'Cuz I'm lost.
And I need to be found.
Crazy as it sounds.
I need you around.
If I could stand.
To be on my own.
Then I would probably
just leave you alone.
But I'm gonna feel this way 'til I'm
six feet underground.
Crazy as it sounds.
I need you around.
Turning,
Tossing and turning,
Our love is burning me down.
If I could change
one thing in this world.
I'd change your mind.
And I'd be your girl.
'Cuz I'm lost.
I need to be found.
Crazy as it sounds.
I need you around.
It was a strange and stormy night.
I'm so sorry we had that fight.
When you walked out that door
I didn't know
you weren't coming back no more.
Now I'm sitting here on the floor.
With our cat
and a broken heart.
And I'm gonna feel this way til I'm six feet underground.
Crazy as it sounds
I need you around.
I need you around.
I need you around.
I need you around.
