You Need Me

As a child I missed a lot of love I never had

And daddy he was distant

Never there to hold my hand

Never bought the things he'd always promise to give me

Mother made up for him always watching over me

Days would go by and we would never see his face

In my mind I'd wonder "Does he have another place?"

If and when he'd come in he would always be upset

All the kids were scared his next syndrome would be a fret

Now that you are older and you begin to see

Family's important to be there if you need

Father never taught us these things mom said to me

Now the table's turned so tell me you need me

Tell me

Tell me

Tell me

Just to me

You need me

Daddy daddy dearest, what is it you want from me

(Tell me)

I won't turn my back on you the way you did with me

Now you try to give and always faking not to cry

I'll give you what I can but I can't give what I don't have

Mother lends a shoulder, to cry on if you need

But are you there for mother when she needs your company?

Father never taught us, these things mom said to me

Now the table's turned so tell me

You need me

Tell me

Tell me

Tell me

Tell me

Say

You need me

If you realize we need each other, we will be a closer family.

I need you, yeah

I need you, and you know that

Say

You need me

Now that you are older and you begin to see

Family's important to be there if you need

Father never taught us, no no never taught us

Just to me

You need me

Tell me that you need me

Tell me that you love me

Tell me that you need me

Just to me

Say

You need me

Now that you are older and you begin to see

Family's important to be there if you need

Father never taught us these things mom said to me

Now the table's turned so tell me you need me

Tell me

Tell me

Tell me

Just to me

You need me

Mother lends a shoulder to cry on if you need

But are you there for mother when she needs your company?

Are you there for mother?

Are you there for mother?

Are you there for mother?

Father never taught us these things mom said to me

Just to me

You need me
