[Verse 1]
I let people, places and things
Get in the way of us
Then sometimes maybe it was just me
Thinking I knew so much
I thought that I could succeed on my own
Doing my own things
But now, I realise I am no good alone
Now I know that I need you
You make the winds, and the waves obey
You place the stars in the sky
And you tell the clouds what form to take
Nothing can stand in your way
'Cause you are Lord
You are God
[Chorus]
I thought I could make it
(without you)
Now I know I can't make it
(without you)
Ooh I need you with me
Right here right near me
Without you I am nothing
(nothing, nothing)
I thought I could make it
(without you)
Now I know I can't make it
(without you)
Ooh I need you with me
Right here right near me
Without you I am nothing
(nothing, nothing)
[Verse 2]
When I am near you, that's when I find
I have direction (yes I do, yeah)
And you let me know when I'm wrong when I'm right
Gives me perspective (yes it does)
And how did I think that I'd make it through the rain
It's your protection
And I cannot go another day
Now I know that I need you
You make the winds, and the waves obey
You place the stars in the sky
And you tell the clouds what form to take
Nothing can stand in your way
'Cause you are Lord
You are God
[Chorus]
I thought I could make it
(without you)
Now I know I can't make it
(without you)
Hey, I need you with me
Right here right near me
Without you I'm nothing
(nothing, nothing)
Ooh, thought I could make it
(without you)
Now I know I can't make it
(without you)
Ooh, I need you with me
Right here right near me
Without you I am nothing
(nothing, nothing)
