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
