Etta James - Deep in the Night Lyrics

Lord, it's hard to do without a man in the house
Last night I needed a man so bad I couldn't sleep at all
I couldn't hardly wait for it to be morning
Then the kids would go to school
Then I'd roll over in bed and play a little game
If you had to have one man, just one man in your life, who would it be?
No, it wouldn't be the first one
And he was so surprised to find out that I
That I had never been before
And I wouldn't take Mr. Big Shot either
Huh, have another drink girl
But the one that I would wanna keep
I know who that would be
The one who first took me during my time that I was hurting
No I said, we gotta wait
But he touched me oh so gentle
Oh so gentle
He just relaxed me on
Now she's flowing he said
Beautiful, beautiful river
Beautiful, beautiful woman river
And I love him for that
Nobody could ever tell me anything bad about that man

(Song starts)
Deep in the night
I remember
There I am reaching, for you
Wanting to turn to you
That's all I want
Oh so much
Deep in the night I need you
To touch me

Deep in the night
I wait for daylight
But daytime always gets blue
But when the sun
Goes down
That's when I feel cold
And old
Deep in the night I need you
To hold me

I read a book and I think about you
I put it down and I think about you
Make some coffee and I think about you
Watched at the cup and I think about you
Wind the clock and I think about you
Go to work and I think about you
I, watch my pillow
And I think
Yeah I think about you
