听歌学英语:Need You Now-Lady Antebellum

Picture perfect memories scattered² all around the floor
Reaching for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time
It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now
Another shot of whiskey
can't stop looking at the door
Wishing you'd come sweeping³ in the way you did before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time
It's a quarter after one
I'm a little drunk⁴ and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now
Ooh...
Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all
It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone and I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call
but I'm a little drunk and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now
I just need you now
Oh baby I need you now
