[Verse 1]
You left him standing in the pouring rain
There's every chance he'll go insane
And someone comes along and takes his hand
He must have love, can't you understand that

[Chorus]
He needs his woman
He needs his woman
And he needs his woman
He needs his woman to love

[Verse 2]
His hands are shaking and his head hangs down
No peace of mind for him is found
Break his heart and then you'll set him free
Someone must save him, just you wait and see, but

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
What will it take until you believe his love is real?
Nobody said he had to love you, now he always will
He'll walk that lonely road again today
The love he gave you, you threw away
When all he wanted was a hand to hold
His lonely world has grown so cold and

[Chorus][x2]
