[Verse 1]
Sometimes I see your face looking at me
All your love and grace smiling at me
All the things we had and never understood
At times it cuts me up thinking of you
All the hope has gone wasted on you
All the talks we had never did no good

[Chorus]
Oh maybe I don't need you to save me
I just want you to help me
Cause you're keeping me up all night
I'm so tired of waiting
Waiting here for nothing
I should be up all night with you

[Verse 2]
Pour another glass
While I watch the bottle disappear
While I watch the morning light appear
Thinking about you

[Chorus]
Oh maybe I don't need you to save me
I just want you to help me
Cause you're keeping me up all night
I'm so tired of waiting
Waiting here for nothing
I should be up all night with you

Oh maybe I don't need you to save me
I just want you to help me
Cause you're keeping me up all night
I'm so tired of waiting
Waiting here for nothing
I should be up all night with you

[Bridge]
I met this girl last night and she said
'Why won't you marry me?'
He met this girl last night and she said
'Why won't you marry me?'

But I'm too young for that
Too dumb for that
Too broke for that
Too tired for that
Too proud for that
And I'm too gone for that
Would you like to come back to my flat?

[Chorus]
Oh maybe I don't need you to save me
I just want you to help me
Cause you're keeping me up all night
I'm so tired of waiting
Waiting here for nothing
I should be up all night with you

Oh maybe (oh maybe) I don't need you to save me
I just want you to help me
Cause you're keeping me up all night
(why don't you do that for me?)
I'm so tired of waiting
Waiting here for nothing
I should be up all night with you

[Outro]
Come on just say you'll stay

One of Britain’s most successful boy bands, Take That are an English pop group from Manchester, formed in 1990. The group currently consists of Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen. The original line-up also featured Jason Orange and Robbie Williams.

Back in the 90s, they achieved unparalleled success, recording three albums which topped the UK Everything Changes and Nobody Else and Greatest Hits. Some of their biggest hits from then include “Back for Good”, “Pray”, “Everything Changes”, “A Million Love Songs” as well as covers of “Relight My Fire” by Dan Hartman and “It Only Takes a Minute” by Tavares.

Their popularity was unsurpassed in Britain. But tensions started growing and Robbie Williams left the band in 1995. The group disbanded the following year after the four remaining members completed their world tour.
