Well I`ve been wonderin` what I`ve been missin` I guess I should have known
But my heart does and it ain`t whisperin` it tells me just what it wants
Someone who knows what I like in my coffee and the shape of my ol` hat
A lover who always looks at me not through me I need a love like that
I need a love like that I could use a little sun on my back
A truck needs a highway a train needs a track I need a love like that
Well I need a new car but I can`t afford it so I keep patchin` that ol` flat
My heart`s lonely and I can`t ignore it I need a love like that
Yeah I need a love like that...
[ mandolin - steel ]
Two young people dancing in the daylight they don`t care where they`re at
Waitin` on sunset a holdin` on so tight I need a love like that
Yeah I need a love like that...
One little baby a hidin` in the shadow of her daddy`s hat
Lovin` and trustin` blindly she`ll follow I need a love like that
Yeah I need a love like that...
Yeah a truck needs a highway a train needs a track and I need a love like that
