It's just what I need on a night like this
(Just, just what I need)
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I need
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
Songwriters: Doug Kahan, Karen Ruth Staley
Now my momma told me in this dog-eat-dog world, baby
A little rendezvous, a little mystery
She'd say, "Yeah that's just what you need
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
I tried to heed his advice but now I'm thinkin' it sounds kinda nice
Now when I was a young girl my dad warned me about the opposite sex
You know what always happens next"
Dancin' real slow when you hold me close I know
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
Oh it's just what I need
You gotta work harder than a man
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I need, yeah
(Just, just what I need)
(Just, just what I need)
It's just what I need on a night like this
It's just what I need on a night like this
(Just, just what I need)
Some romance book Romeo callin' you at work and messin' up your plans"
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I need
Night falls, I slow down, I start dreamin' of you comin' around
Yeah, yeah
He'd say, "Yeah, that's just what you need some crazy boy with wild ideas
(Just, just what I need)
