Lyrics You Needed Me - Isaac Hayes , Millie Jackson

I cried a tear you wiped it dry
I was confused and 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
Thank God you were there
Oh, yeah and I'll never leave
Why should I leave?
I'd be a fool cause I finally found
Someone who really cares
Someone who really cares

You held my hand, you held my hand
When it was so cold, when it was so cold
When I was lost, when I was lost
Yes, you took me home, you took me home
You gave me hope, you gave me hope
When I was at my end, when I was at my end
And turned my life, turned my life
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
Oh, baby
You needed me, you needed me
You needed me, you needed me

Oh, baby you needed me
Oh, baby, baby
It's so good baby
So good I know, I know
That you needed me
And as long as you need me baby
I'll be right here for you Daddy
When I cried a tear you wiped it dry
That's a sign that you need me
Ooh, baby
I'm so glad I was there for you baby
No-one could be more happy than me
Cause you cleared my mind
Oh, you gave me the strength
To carry on baby
I'm so glad to give you strength
Cause I need you too yeah
And I'm gonna be right here
Anytime you need me baby ah, ha
I need you and you need me
That's the way it'll always be
I need you baby
And I need you too
Everything's gonna be all right.
