in my life
I don't need a mansion or a fancy car.
I don't need a thousand acres for to live on;
it would be too much to take care of some how

There's a lot of things I don't need
But the one thing I need is you.

I don't need a lot of crazy fans in my life.
I don't need conceit giving me a big head.
I don't need a lot of loneliness in my life
what I truly need right now is a loyal friend.

There are a lot of things I don't need
But the one thing I need is you.

I have wasted much of my life in pursuing
what doesn't matter in life.
Let me use the time I have left as a giver
making an impact that's bright

I don't need a lot of fancy things in my life;
posessions gather dust which blows away in the wind
I don't need a lot of negative thoughts in my life
all they ever do is cause grief from within

There's a lot of things I don't need
But the one thing I need is you [comments] => 9 [counter] => 301 [topic] => 34 [informant] => Archie [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

I so agree with this. When we finally put life in its proper perspective, we find it is not things that are important, but people, certain people make life worth living.

Oh Archie how very beautiful. A splendid way to start the day! I just posted a poem called "Double Dose" Drs. everywhere are finding out today, that without a warm relationship with others.....no one can truly be happy. Even the famous. They can have wealth, but not be happy. It takes love to have that!
Spendid poem......to my enjoyment
thank you for say what you did.

somewhat pure in loving thought, wouldnt you say?

Dont we all wish love was clean and free from such corruption?

congrats on a well-written write... I love your unique style within each line... and the repetition of what we all truly need...

Wonderful! This is full of the purity that comes from wisdom. Amazing how what we thought was love falls away, and exposes a thing so much deeper, it is hard to accept.
