There you lay and here I stand

He knelt down on his knees and took her by the hand

We seen some good times been through some bad

But somewhere between the laughter and the tears

We sure had a lot of great years, she said



We didn't need fortune didn't need fame

Just a little shelter from the rain

Your hand to hold onto, when times got tough you pulled me through

We didn't need a castle made of stone

Just you there as I grow old

Your heart to hold onto

All I ever needed was you

Was you.



Remember our first dance, our first kiss

I pictured my life with you to be just like this

You stood by me, I stand by you

We share the laughter joy and pain

But it's a moment like this I hope it never ends



(chorus)

We didn't need fortune didn't need fame

Just a little shelter from the rain

Your hand to hold onto, when times got tough you pulled me through

We didn't need a castle made of stone, just you there as i grow old

Your heart to hold onto, 

All I ever needed was you

Share my life with you, girl



I thank you for sharing your life with me

For giving me a reason to believe

For loving me for who i am



(chorus)

We didn't need fortune didn't need fame

Just a little shelter from the rain

Your hand to hold onto, when times got tough you pulled me through

We didn't need a castle made of stone, just you there as I grow old

Your heart to hold onto, 

All I ever needed 

All I ever needed was you



You're all I ever needed.
