The Jackson 5

The Jackson 5 (also spelled The Jackson Five, sometimes stylized The Jackson 5ive), later known as The Jacksons, or simply Jacksons, are an American popular music family group from Gary, Indiana. Founding group members Jackie Jackson, Tito Jackson, Jermaine Jackson, Marlon Jackson and Michael Jackson formed the group after performing in an early incarnation called The Jackson Brothers, which originally consisted of a trio of the three older brothers. Active from 1964 to 1990, the Jacksons played from a repertoire of R&B, soul, pop and (in the 1970s) disco.

Now you say... everytime you need some affection 
The one you love goes in another direction 
You just sit back in a daze and miss him 
'Cause you know some other lips, he's been kissing 

Now when you need the love he never showed you, come 'round here 
And when you need some loving arms to hold you, come 'round here 
Now I may not be the one you want (honey, honey) 
But I know, I'm the one you need (honey, honey) 
Say now, I may not be the one you want (honey, honey) 
But, I know, I'm the one you need (honey, honey) 

Your life stands still the minute he goes 
You count the hours just hoping he shows 

Girl, can't you see while you're looking for his touch (honey, honey) 
That I'm the one who loves you so much (honey, honey) 
And while you're longing for his embrace (honey, honey) 
You're lonely with the tears on your face (honey, honey) 

Now when you feel the need to cry to someone, cry to me 
And when you feel the need to lean on someone, lean on me 
Now, I may not be the one you want (honey, honey) 
But I'm sure 'nough the one you need (honey, honey) 
Now, I may not be the one you want (honey, honey) 
But I'm sure 'nough the one you need (honey, honey) 

Now, the day, the days, the days you sit round by yourself 
He's out fooling round with somebody else 
Leaving you alone here with nothing to do 
He's just waiting 'til he has time for you 

Now, when the loneliness gets hard to take, girl come 'round here 
And when you need a little tender lover care, girl come 'round here 

Now, I may not be the one you want (honey, honey) 
But, I'm sure 'nough the one you need (honey, honey) 
Now, I may not be the one you want (honey, honey) 
But, I know, I'm the one you need (honey, honey)
