From the album:There's A Kind Of Hush. Richard Carpenter had this to say about this song: "'I Need To Be In Love' with its soaring melody and melancholy John Bettis lyrics, became Karen's favorite Carpenters song".

Lyrics:
The hardest thing I've ever done is keep believing
There's someone in this crazy world for me
The way that people come and go through temporary lives
My chance could come and I might never know

I used to say "No promises, let's keep it simple"
But freedom only helps you say goodbye
It took a while for me to learn that nothing comes for free
The price I paid is high enough for me

* I know I need to be in love
I know I've wasted too much time
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find

+ So here I am with pockets full of good intentions
But none of them will comfort me tonight
I'm wide awake at 4 a.m. without a friend in sight
I'm hanging on a hope but I'm all right

repeat *
repeat +
repeat *

    This video is rather corny, but this is one of the most beautiful, moving, and truly wonderful songs the Carpenters recorded. Karen was a knockout in many different ways. She is sorely missed.

    It was fascinating watching Karen flirting on the flight. IMO,the GREATEST female singing voice ever, bar none. Beautiful to look at as well. Rest in peace. With God providing the music, I bet the folks in heaven are hearing some incredible songs with Karen singing!

  • This song and video ...

    This song and video and Karen's fantastic vocals kind of tell the story of Karen's real personal life, a chance at a lasting relationship, then frustration in the end, but nonetheless she was simply an amazingly talented and a real down to earth person.

  • cunningly low key ...

    cunningly low key video; most effective and largely ducking the potential to go OTT. However, one imagines that such recognisable very rich people (The matching teeth would be a bit of a giveaway) would be getting come-ons for a quickie in the airplane toilet, the offering party working out that even a casual dalliance might earn you a car.
