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 can 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’ve fin’lly found someone who really cares.
You held my hand, when it was cold, when I was lost you took me home
You gave me hope, when I was at the end and turned my lies back into truth again
You even called me friend.
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 can almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me. You needed me, you needed me.
