Ooh I need your love, babe, guess you know it's true,
Hope you need my love, babe, just like I need you.

Hold me, love me,
Hold me, love me.
I ain't got nothin' but love, babe,
Eight days a week.

Love you ev'ry day, girl, always on my mind.
One thing I can say, girl, love you all the time.

Hold me, love me,
Hold me, love me.
I ain't got nothin' but love, babe,

Eight days a week, I love you.
Eight days a week is not enough to show I care.

Ooh I need your love, babe, guess you know it's true,
Hope you need my love, babe, just like I need you.

Hold me, love me,
Hold me, love me.
I ain't got nothin' but love, babe,
Eight days a week

Eight days a week, I love you.
Eight days a week is not enough to show I care.

Love you ev'ry day, girl, always on my mind.
One thing I can say, girl, love you all the time.

Hold me, love me,
Hold me, love me.
I ain't got nothin' but love, babe,
Eight days a week
