Solomon Burke - You Needed Me lyrics

I cried a tear You wiped it dry I was confused You cleared my mind I sold my soul You bought it back to me And helped 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, almost see eternity Yes, 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, a fool 'Cause I've finally found someone like you Who really, really, really, really cares You held my hand When I was cold When I was lost You took me home You gave me hope, hope When I was at my end Turned my lies Oh, 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, high, high upon a pedestal So high that I could almost see eternity Oh, you needed me, you needed me Yes, you needed me (You needed me) You needed me (You needed me) Oh, oh, oh, you needed me You needed me
