"I Need You"

I'm currently wrapped up in a blanket on the couch, my huge headphones hanging around my neck, sipping my coffee, heart happy and wanting this song.  This song has this sexy "I Can't Make You Love" but you really do love me feel to it.  Get the picture?  Ever feel like you want to fast forward parts of your life?  This song makes me feel like I've jumped to my happily ever after for all of 3:03.  This song is a wrecking ball of need, want, desire, aching, ahh, just music.  How did this song only peak to #8 on the Hot Country Songs chart?  Oh and it legitimately has its own Wikipedia page.  Classic?  I think so.  Check it out here.

Song: "I Need You"

(Tim)
I wanna drink that shot of whiskey
I wanna smoke that cigarette 
I wanna smell that sweet addiction on my breath 
I wanna ride 'cross West Virginia in the backseat of a Cadillac 
You know some cowboys like me go out like that 
So I need you 

(Chorus)
Like a needle needs a vein
Like my uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs the rain
I need you like a lighthouse on the coast
Like the father and the son need the holy ghost
I need you

(Faith)
I wanna get lost in some corner booth
Cantina Mexico 
I wanna dance to the static of an AM radio
I wanna wrap the moon around us and lay beside you skin on skin
Make love 'til the sun comes up… 'til the sun goes down again 
‘Cause I need you 

(Chorus)
Like a needle needs a vein 
Like uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs the rain
I need you
Like a lighthouse needs a coast 
Like the father and the son need the holy ghost
I need you
oooohhhhh I need you

(Tim)
I wanna drink that shot of whiskey 
I wanna smoke that cigarette 
You know some cowboys like me go out like that 
So I need you
ooooohh I need you
