[Chorus 1:]
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby

[Verse 1:]
Moonlit sky casts shadows down
Romance in the air is strong
Something's telling me
I need your love

[Chorus 2:]
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(And that's a fact)
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(Where are you at?)

[Verse 2:]
Looking glass reflects the moon
Your love's missing from this room
Baby, now I see
I need your love

[Chorus 2:]
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(And that's a fact)
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(Where are you at?)

[Chorus 2:]
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(And that's a fact)
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(Where are you at?)

Oh, I need your love
I need you tonight
Can't do without
Oh, I need your love

Oh, I need your love
So I can hug
And squeeze you tight
Oh, I need your love

Oh, I need your love
I need you tonight
Can't do without
Oh, I need your love

Oh, I need your love
So I can hug
And squeeze you tight
Oh, I need your love

Baby
Come on home to me

I need your love

[Chorus 2:]
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(And that's a fact)
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
(Where are you at?)

I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
That's where I'm at
Baby

I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
Now I know what
I've been missing
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby

The Human League are a synth pop band from Sheffield, England, formed in 1977. They generated a string of synthesizer-backed dance pop hits throughout the 80s. David Bowie dubbed the group “the sound of the future” in 1981.

The band is best known for its third studio album released in 1981, Dare! The fourth single from Dare, “Don’t You Want Me,” catapulted to #1 in the UK and US.

Phil Oakey is the only core member of the group. The band’s first incarnation was as an arty all-male synthesizer group, composed of Oakey, Martyn Ware, and Ian Craig Marsh. In the 1980s, Ware and Marsh left the group after continued conflicts with Oakey—they went on to form Heaven 17.
