You Needed Me

by Anne Murray

Found on the CD Now & Forever [Box Sex]

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 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 could almost see eternity

You needed me
You needed me

You needed me
You needed me
