Can some one help me out with the words to this one. Some words are, You gave me strength to stand alone again. to face the world 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.

By Randy Goodrum, a #1 hit for Anne Murray in 1978. Click here to see the lyrics (and the information I gave above) at the highly impressive #1 Songs site. (Now let's see if that worked.)

That link is out of date

This is the boyzone's versin. whilst is not folk; it has the lyrics

I cried a tear
You wiped it dry
I was confused
You cleared my mind
I sold my soul
You bought it back for me
You held me up
You 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

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
I finally found someone who really cares

(You needed me)

You held my hand
When it was cold
When I was lost
You took me home
You gave me love
When I was at the end
And 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
You needed me
You needed me

You needed me
You needed me
Oh, yes, you needed me
You needed me



Anne Murray

I cried a tear, you wiped it dry
I was confused, 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 you were there
And I'll never leave, why should I leave?
I'd be a fool 'cause I finally found someone who really cares

You held my hand when it was cold
When I was lost you took me home
You gave me hope when I was at the end
And turned my lies 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
You needed me, you needed me

You needed me, you needed me
