Goodbye, so long
Were the last words from you
Seems like you-re over
All the goodness we knew
You think that you-re strong
You think that you don-t
You don-t need no one
Well, I was talkin- to some of your friends
Just to see how everyone was doin-
And they said you needed me
Said it was something you-d never admit
But it was hard to see you going through it
They said you needed me
Guess I-ll suffer -til I-m where I belong
I-m under the pressure
But I-ll keep being strong
You say that you-re strong
You say that you don-t need anyone
What in the world are you telling your friends
I get confused every time I see them
They said you needed me
I know the people talk just for the thrill
But the fact of the matter is still
They said you needed me
Take your time, re-invent your mind
You-ll feel better, you-ll feel stronger
Then decide if I-m in your life
For forever or longer
You think that you-re strong
You think that you don-t
You don-t need no one
Well, I was talkin- to some of your friends
Just to see how everyone was doin-
And they said you needed me
Said it was something you-d never admit
But it was hard to see you going through it
They said you needed me
