Karen Akers - What You Need

〈RAFFAELA〉
What you need is someone strong
To lean upon when you're wrong
What you need is someone wise
To count upon who will know

What I am is less than strong
And far from wise, oh far indeed!
But I could be
With you close to me
A person somehow strong
Someway wise
Like someone who
You will need

〈Instrumental〉

But I could be
With you close to me
A person somehow strong
In someway wise
Like someone who
You will need

〈OTTERNSCHLAG, spoken〉
Sometimes the touch of strangers triggers a passion that penetrates to the spine and echoes through the soul. But in the morning? Lovers — or strangers again?
