The National - I Need My Girl download song

So crazy that this song means something different to everyone. When he says, “I need my girl” everyone has someone different who comes to mind.

"I keep feeling smaller and smaller". Those words, those lyrics right there! There are times that everyone is feeling a little bit "smaller". I think a lot of people can relate to that. And to hear about it in the lyrics of such a beautiful song is what makes you realise how in many situtations you may feel afraid, frigile, lonely. It's heartbreaking... but beautiful too!

I am good, I am grounded Davy says that I look taller I can’t get my head around it I keep feeling smaller and smaller I need my girl I need my girl Remember when you lost your shit and Drove the car into the garden You got out and said I’m sorry To the vines and no one saw it I need my girl I need my girl I’m under the gun again I know I was a 45 percenter then I know I was a lot of things But I am good, I am grounded Davy says that I look taller I can’t get my head around it I keep feeling smaller and smaller I need my girl I need my girl There’s some things that I should never Laugh about in front of family In a week we’ll be together Try to call you when I’m landed I need my girl I need my girl Remember when you said I’m sorry To the vines and no one saw it I’ll try to call you from the party It’s full of punks and cannonballers I need my girl I need my girl I’m under the gun again I know I was a 45 percenter then I know I was a lot of things But I am good, I am grounded Davy says that I look taller I can’t get my head around it I keep feeling smaller and smaller I keep feeling smaller and smaller I keep feeling smaller and smaller

this song makes me ache with loneliness...i miss the special ones, especially the one i didn't realize was special, until she was gone...

i need to be loved.

worst way to miss someone is to have them sitting right next to you and knowing you can never have them.

Here after a terrible break-up. I so want to send this song to my former partner. I miss him. I wish he could hold me.

My wife and I just performed our first dance at our wedding to this song tonight :)

“In the end, you couldn’t love me. I feel at peace with that now because I loved you the absolute best that I could.“

This song...hits me where it hurts. Yet I keep coming back to it.

I don't have an ex girlfriend but listening to this song makes me miss her

This song reminds me of my parents. They married when they were 16 and are still married 19 years later. They breathe for each other and are still so much like like love struck teenagers who bicker and chase each other around the house. Love lasts forever.

A question: What do you get out of this song? This may be one of the most poignant songs for me in regards to relationships and every time I watch this, I am filled with both love for my wife and an immense amount of shame that I do not give, nor show, her enough love. I need her beyond a doubt and it is humbling that she continues to love an imperfect being like me. So what I get out of this song is how much I truly need the woman I have in my life. She gives me the emotional and physical support I do not get from the rest of the world. She is everything to me. When the world is critical, cynical of who I am (or who I 'should' be), she is a safe haven. It baffles me what she gets out of our relationship... Thank you to the National for putting into words what I feel. A side note: the old couple gets me every time. Love should be timeless and they illustrate that point.

"In the end you couldn't love me...but i'm at peace with that now...because I loved you the absolute best I could."

I keep feeling smaller and smaller. I'm already a short girl, I'll probably disappear.

Whoo needs love when you can listen to such great music and cry your eyes out.
