Isaac Hayes — Wherever You Are

[Verse 1] I thought that I wanted to be free And the street life was the thing for me But I was wrong I shouldn't have let you get away I've seen too many lonely days Since you've been gone [Chorus] I miss you, baby My life is coming apart I need to be with you Wherever you are [Verse 2] A different girl every night Music, wine, and soft lights Don't help at all 'Cause when I'm about to get it on My mind drifts to the telephone Hoping you call [Chorus] I need you, baby Stop this pain in my heart I need to be with you Wherever you are [Bridge] You never know how deep love grows 'til you lose it And you never, never, never realize It's true value until it's gone You, only you can restore my piece of mind I won't truly smile again Until you come back home [Verse 3] Sometimes I can hear you call my name I must be going insane, my mind playing tricks on me Your loving arms is a therapy That I need to get back my sanity [Chorus] Oh, I need you, baby You gotta stop this pain in my heart I need to be with you Wherever you are [Outro] I love you Wherever you are I need you Wherever you are Come to me, baby Stop this pain in my heart I need you Wherever you are I miss you Wherever you are Come back, baby, come on back Stop this pain in my heart Nothing can take a place of you I love you Wherever you are
