"(Come 'Round Here) I'm the One You Need)" is a 1966 single by Motown group The Miracles, released on Motown Records' Tamla label.

Unlike most Miracles songs, which were written and produced by the group themselves, "I'm the One You Need" was written and produced by Motown's main songwriting and production team Holland-Dozier-Holland, best known for their work with The Supremes and The Four Tops. Holland-Dozier-Holland had written and produced two previous Miracles singles: the Top 10 hit "Mickey's Monkey" and "I Gotta Dance to Keep from Crying" (both 1963). "I'm the One You Need" was the final Miracles single released before lead singer Smokey Robinson was given star billing on the group's 45's.

The single peaked at number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100, and at number four on "Billboard's" R&B singles chart. It was also a Top 20 hit in England, peaking at number 13. "Come 'Round Here) I'm the One You Need)" was the most successful single featured on the Miracles' 1966 album "Away We a Go-Go", and has been covered by acts such as The Jackson 5, The Cowsills, and The GP's . The song's "B" side , "Save Me", inspired a cover version by The Undertones .
