Sometimes a simple lyric is all you need.
All you need is love.
De, do, do, do.
De, da, da, da.
‘Scuse me while I kiss this guy.
This week’s lyric is to a song that I simply can’t not sing along to in the car.
Enjoy Girlfriend by Matthew Sweet (from 1991’s Girlfriend).
I wanna love somebody
I hear you need somebody to love
I wanna love somebody
I hear you’re looking for someone to love
‘Cause you need to
Get back in the arms of a good friend
And I need to
Get back in the arms of a girlfriend
I didn’t know nobody
And then I saw you coming my way
I didn’t know nobody
And then I saw you coming my way
Don’t you need to
Get back in the arms of a good friend?
‘Cause, honey, believe me
I’d sure love to call you my girlfriend
‘Cause you got a good thing going, baby
You only need somebody to love
Oh, you’ve got a good thing going
You’re only looking for someone to love
‘Cause you need to
Get back in the arms of a good friend
And I’m never gonna set you free
No, I’m never gonna set you free
