You Needed Me

Ferlin Husky · Essential [Madacy] [2005]

(Randy Goodrum)



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.



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 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.



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.

You needed me...
