Backstory:

This emerged from the background score I did in year 2000 for the claymation version of "Where The Wild Things Are"  for an advanced tele-production class project at the University of Georgia's School of Journalism when I was a PhD student in that university but in a different department, school, and discipline. Here it is on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Taztz48BoM. 

Soon after, I developed the theme music to that film/video into a song (with lyrics) and only recently (in 2019) recorded it. This is my preliminary mix of the song.

Lyrics:

                                                  
[Verse 1]
SO I AM HERE
BACK AGAIN DEAR
COME RUNNING TO ME
CALL ME YOU HONEY
WRAP ME IN YOUR ARMS FOREVER

[Verse 2]
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?
YOU LOOK SO LEAN
HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY
THOUGHTS ARE NOT SAPPY
KNOW THAT YOUR WAIT IS NOW OVER

[Chorus]
LOVE IS ONLY WHAT I NEED
HOPE IS ONLY WHAT I SEEK
GIVE ME FAITH, GIVE ME TRUST
SEE WHAT LOVE ALONE CAN DO
SEE WHAT YOU AND I CAN DO

[Transition Interlude Music]

[Verse 3]
HOW WAS LIFE WITH YOU?
WAS THERE SOMEONE NEW?
DID YOU EVER MISS ME?
IN YOUR DREAMS KISS ME?
TELL ME NOW THAT WE’RE TOGETHER

[Chorus]
LOVE IS ONLY WHAT I NEED
HOPE IS ONLY WHAT I SEEK
GIVE ME FAITH, GIVE ME TRUST
SEE WHAT LOVE ALONE CAN DO
SEE WHAT YOU AND I CAN DO

[Transition Interlude Music]

[Bridge]
I AM SO SORRY FOR BEING AWAY SO LONG
SEE THE GOOD THING THAT DISTANCE CAN GIVE US IS MAKE US STRONG
WE NEEDED TO BE STRONG

[Chorus]
LOVE IS ONLY WHAT I NEED
HOPE IS ONLY WHAT I SEEK
GIVE ME FAITH, GIVE ME TRUST
SEE WHAT LOVE ALONE CAN DO
SEE WHAT YOU AND I CAN DO

[Repeat Chorus]

[Post-Chorus/Tag/Finale]
SEE WHAT LOVE ALONE CAN DO
SEE WHAT YOU AND I CAN DO
