[Intro: Nick]
Oh, yeah

[Verse 1: Nick]
Open up your heart to me
And say what's on your mind, oh yes
I know that we have been through so much pain
But I still need you in my life, this time

[Chorus: Nick]
And I need you tonight
I need you right now
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
I really need you tonight

[Verse 2: Nick]
I figured out what to say to you
Sometimes the words they, they come out so wrong
(Always they do)
And I know in time that you will understand
That what we have is so right, this time

[Chorus: Nick]
And I need you tonight
I need you right now
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right

[Verse 3: Nick]
All those endless times
We tried to make it last forever more
And baby I know
I need you (oh oh, yeah)
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
I really need you, oh

[Outro: Nick]
I need you tonight (I need you, oh I need you baby)
I need you right now (It's got to be this, it's got to be this)
I know deep within my heart
No, it doesn't matter if it's wrong or it's right
All I know is baby
I really need you tonight
Ooh

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
