I don't need you I don't need friendship And I don't need flowers in the spring And I don't need you And you surely don't need me I don't need love and affection And I don't need peace and harmony And I don't need you And you surely don't need me But we both want it bad enough Yes, we both want it, don't we? I don't need you, baby And I know you don't need me I don't need your loving arms around me All I need is to be free That's what I keep telling myself And I tell you, you don't need me I don't need children in my old age No more cluttered leaves around the trees And I don't need you, baby And I know you don't need me But we both want it bad enough Yes, we both want it, don't we? And I don't need you, baby And I know you don't need me We don't need each other baby We don't need each other baby Or do we?
