What is I Need You about?
🎶 I Need You song analysis
The protagonist wants to do things like drink whiskey, smoke cigarettes and drive across West Virginia in a Cadillac like a cowboy. However, he realizes that he needs his partner, called "she," like a needle needs a vein, like his uncle in Oklahoma needs rain, like a lighthouse on the coast, or like the father and son meeting the Holy Spirit. His partner, Faith Hill, also wants to do things like get lost in a cantina in Mexico, dance to static on an AM radio, and have skin-to-skin sex until the sun comes up. But in the end, they both need each other.
