[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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 nevеr leave; why should I leavе? I'd be a fool
'Cause I finally found someone who really cares

[Verse 2]
You held my hand when I 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"
[Chorus]
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
Yes, you needed me
Needed me
