How I Needed You

Safe from them all
Those evil little motherfuckers at my door
Yeah, well I've kept score
And I believe they owe me more than life is short

Do you remember when nobody knew me?
Man, was life so simple then
But you knew my name and Lord knows
It will never sound the same again

I will stay with you
I will stay with you
I will stay with you
How I needed you
How I needed you
How I needed you

I needed you
I needed you
I needed you

Well, a long time ago
That night we had was my only claim to fame
Yeah, we were only friends
And girl, you took away from us our happy end

So I will stay with you
I will stay with you
I will stay with you
How I needed you
How I needed you
How I needed you

You've taken from me everything in the world
I needed you
You've taken from me everything in the world
I needed you
You've taken from me everything in the world

You've taken from me everything in the world

I hate you more than I hate everything in the world
Well, I do, I said, I do
You've taken from me everything I deserve
Well, it's true, yeah, it's true

I hate you more than I hate everything in the world
Well, I do, well, I do
You've taken from me everything I deserve
Well, it's true, well, it's true
