[Intro: Brian]
Hey, yeah-yeah

[Verse 1: Brian & Nick]
I wanna know
Can we spend this life together?
Be the shield from rainy weather
Tell me can I...
Baby tell me, can I be your man?
Let's be lovers (lovers)
Girl, I promise to be faithful
True and honest yeah, forever
I know you've been hurt
But you really need to give us a chance

[Chorus: All]
You need love
Please don't change the way you are
Soon you'll live within my heart
You deserve it, you know it
You've been searching for it all of your life
You need love
Don't be scared to try again
You can rest upon my chest
And I'll hold you, I'll save you
You've been searching for it all of your life
(You need love, you need love)

[Verse 2: Howie & AJ]
I need to know
Can I be the one you trust?
Be your friend, I'll give you all
All of the things you dream of
Tell me, can I be your man?
Hole in your heart (your heart)
There's a wound I wanna heal
If you're willing, I'll be here
Here to fix the broken
Let me change the life you live, oh-oh!

[Chorus: All & AJ]
You need love
Please don't change the way you are
Soon you'll live within my heart (oh!)
You deserve it, you know it
You've been searching for it all of your life
You need love
Don't be scared to try again
You can rest upon my chest
And I'll hold you, I'll save you
You've been searching for it all of your life
(You need love, need love)

[Bridge: Nick & Brian]
You've been searching for it
All of your life, yeah
(You need love, you need love)
You've been searching for it
All of your life, oh, oh, oh, oh!
You need love, you need love
Don't change the way you are
You need love
Searching for it all of your life

[Chorus: All, Brian, Nick & AJ]
You need love
Please don't change the way you are
Soon you'll live within my heart
You deserve it, you know it
You've been searching for it all of your life
(You need love), you need love
Don't be scared to try again (try again)
You can rest upon my chest (oh-yeah)
And I'll hold you, I'll save you
You've been searching for it all of your life
(You need love, you need love)
You need love
Please don't change the way you are (oh-oh!)
Soon you'll live within my heart
(Yeah-hey-yeah!)
You deserve it, you know it
(You've been searching)
You've been searching for it all of your life
You need love
Don't be scared to try again
You can rest upon my chest
And I'll hold you, I'll save you
You've been searching for it all of your life
(You need love, you need love)

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.
