I Just Got to Have YouEddie Rabbitt

Songwriter: Even Stevens Eddie Rabbitt

Producer: David Malloy

Blood rushing up into my brain
I'm weak and uneasy
And I'm feeling strange
Baby
(Baby)
Quivering legs and trembling hands
I don't believe even Superman
Can save me
(Save me)

Throw your lifeline out to me
I'm a drowning man on a raging sea
And I just got to have you
There's no other way
I just got to have you
Not tomorrow
Today

The moment that I first set eyes on you
Well, I made up my mind
My love
It ain't blind, baby
I just got to have you

Well, every man's got his fantasy
But you're beyond my wildest dreams
Baby
(Baby)
And I'd give everything I own
Just to get you off alone
Baby
(Baby)

Turn your green light on for me
I'm a speeding man on a dead-end street
And I just got to have you
(Just got to have you)

There's no other way
(Just got to have you)
I just got to have you
Not tomorrow, today

The moment that I first set eyes on you
Well, I made up my mind
My love
It ain't blind, baby
I just got to have you

I just got to have you
(Just got to have you)
There's no other way
(Just got to have you)
I just got to have you
Not tomorrow, today

The moment that I first set eyes on you
Well, I made up my mind
My love
It ain't blind, baby
