America was a very underated band in my opinion by the critics but I still disagree after all these years they were one of the best groups from the 70 s
A perfect song. In 1973, I use to get a quarter a week allowance and I saved up and bought this album. I would play it over and over and over. Best $5 I've ever spent.
We used to laugh, we used to cry
We used to bow our heads then, wonder why
And now you're gone, I guess I'll carry on
And make the best of what you've left to me
Left to me, left to me
I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you, I need you
And every day, I'd laugh the hours away
Just knowing you were thinking of me
And then it came that I was put to blame
For every story told about me
About me, about me
I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you
I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you
I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you
I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you, I need you ...
Song makes me cry, lost my sixteen-year-old son 2013 and every time I play this CD and this song I think him. What a great band that was underrated. God bless you all in 2020.
I don't care anyone says/ Music is a very personal, emotionally charged experience. I have heard this a thousand times; and yet it still thrills me. Rest peacefully Dan
