"Faces" lyrics

"Faces"

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah

Faces crowd around like on a carousel
Friends, smiling faces, all meaning well
But saying empty phrases I can't bear to hear
'Cause the only face I long to see is nowhere near

Though I have the fruits of life dangling on a string
Though I have the things that friends and money bring
I don't have you beside me and life doesn't mean a thing

I need to see your face, but you're not there
Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey
I cry to see your face, but you're not there
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

Since you've been gone, there's nothing left but emptiness
All my nights are lonely, all my days are cold
Mmm-hmm, oh babe
Need your love

Well, now you were the wine of life
The dreams in my eyes
Your face the light that led me
My friends don't realize

Oh, how I need your lovin' smile, I need your tender touch
I need to see the face that's grown to mean so much
The only face I see to bring any joy to me

No more kidding faces saying it's alright
While pushing through their lonely days, two more lonely nights
Depression is my pillow, loneliness my bed
And I need your love to guide me through all the days ahead

I need you, girl, mmm, I need you
Can't you hear me?
Ooh
