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
