What I Needed

[Verse 1]

Missing something in my life

Searching for it day and night

Couldn't seem to get it right

'Til you walked my way

Leaving lovers one by one

Didn't like who I would become

Could not face myself, I turn and run

Made me see that I could change

Out of my darkness

As I step into the light

We get a new day

Taking one step at a time

[Chorus]

You were what I needed

I was falling

Hiding my emotion

You made me see the truth

Your love was what I needed

Hear me calling

Waiting for a lifetime

Girl, you were my rescue

All I needed was you

[Verse 2]

I used to always get my way

Told me that you wouldn't stay

Had to face it, what you had to say

If I wanted you

You tell me when I did you wrong

I guess I have known it all along

Cared enough and you stood strong

I believed in you

In my frustrations

Tried to become someone else

The years I have wasted

I would been lying to myself

[Chorus]

You were what I needed

I was falling

Hiding my emotion

You made me see the truth

Your love was what I needed

Hear me calling

Waiting for a lifetime

Hear me calling

What I needed

What I needed was you

[Bridge]

In you I found shelter

How you believed in me, stood strong

You were there through my darkest hour

You lifted my spirit up

Brought out the best in me

And now I will stand before you with all my love

[Chorus]

You were what I needed

I was falling

Hiding my emotion

But you made me see the truth

Your love was what I needed

Hear me calling

Waiting for a lifetime

Girl you were my rescue

What I needed was you
