ALL I NEED IS YOU
(McAndrew)

you were always there, i saw you every day
you made me so glad, but it was hard for me to say
if not for you, this song would be so blue
if not for you, my world would cleave in two
if not for you, my dreams could not come true
ALL I NEED IS YOU

the years have passed and gently made their mark
the fun and the laughter of dancing in the dark
if not for you, this race could not be run
if not for you, my life would be no fun
if not for you, my world would hold no son
ALL I NEED IS YOU

i hope you're there when all else has passed away
i want you back, to hear the words i want to say to you
i hope forever, to be standing by your side
if only i can swallow my foolish pride

i would like to present to you, the world and all within
i would gain so much pleasure, but where do i begin
if not for you, i'm lost and so alone
if not for you, my heart's sunk like a stone
and if not for you, my house is not a home
all i'll ever need is you

Comment:- You don't need to be Einstein!! (but this was the second edition, certainly not the first!) I actually did record this song in a Penicuik studio some time in the '80's although the only copy I have left is a lowly cassette tape. I may restore it and put it up on the site sometime.
