You needed me
I cried a tear
You wiped it dry
I was confused
You cleared my mind
I sold my soul
You bought it back for me
And held me up
And gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me
You gave me strength
To stand alone again
To face the world
Out on my own again
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me
And I can't believe it's you
I can't believe it's true
I needed you
And you were there
And I'll never leave, why should I leave
I'd be a fool
'Cause I finally found someone who really cares
(You needed me)
You held my hand
When it was cold
When I was lost
You took me home
You gave me love
When I was at the end
And turned my lies
Back into truth again
You even called me "friend"
You gave me strength (You gave me strength)
To stand alone again (To stand alone)
To face the world (To face the world)
Out on my own again (On my own)
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me
You needed me
You needed me
Oh, yes, you needed me
You needed me
I cried a tear
You wiped it dry
I was confused
You cleared my mind
I sold my soul
You bought it back for me
And held me up
And gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me
You gave me strength
To stand alone again
To face the world
Out on my own again
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me
And I can't believe it's you
I can't believe it's true
I needed you
And you were there
And I'll never leave, why should I leave
I'd be a fool
'Cause I finally found someone who really cares
(You needed me)
You held my hand
When it was cold
When I was lost
You took me home
You gave me love
When I was at the end
And turned my lies
Back into truth again
You even called me "friend"
You gave me strength (You gave me strength)
To stand alone again (To stand alone)
To face the world (To face the world)
Out on my own again (On my own)
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me
You needed me
You needed me
Oh, yes, you needed me
You needed me
