In the evening

In the evening when the day is done,
I'm looking for my woman
oh but the girl don't come.
So don't let her play you for a fool,
she don't show no pity,
no, no, she don't make no rules.
Oh, I need your love,
I need your love,
oh, I need your love,
I just gotta have it.

So don't you let her
oh get under your ski,
it's only bad luck and trouble
oh from the day that you begin.

I hear you crying in the darkness
no, don't ask nobody's help,
oh ain't no pockets full of mercy baby,
'cause you can only blame yourself.

Oh, I need your love,
oh, oh I need your love,
ooh yeah I need your love,
I've got pain.

Ooh it's simple,
all the pain that you go through,
you can'tf turn away from fortune, fortune, fortune
'cause that's all that's left to you.

Hey, it's lonely at the bottom,
man it's dizzy at the top,
but if you're standing in the middle,
oh ain't no way you're gonna stop.
Oh baby,

oh, oh, I need your love
oh, oh, I need your love,
oh, oh, I need your love,
I've got pain.

Ooh whatever, what your days may bring;
no use hiding in a corner
'cause that won't change a thing.
If you're dancing in the doldrums
one day soon it's gotta stop.
When you're master of the offchance
well you don't expect a lot.

Oh, I need your love,
oh, oh I need your love,
ooh yeah I need your love,
I've got pain.
I've got pain.
