He Needs Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He needs me.
He doesn't know it, but he needs me.
And so no matter where he goes,
Though he doesn't care,
He knows that I'm here.
He needs me.
I ought to leave him, but he needs me.
I know that I ain't very bright
Just to tag along,
Oh, but right or wrong
I'm his and I'm here,
And I'm gonna be his friend or his lover.
'Cause my one ambition is
To wake him and make him discover
That he needs me.
I've got to follow where he leads me
Or else he'll never know that I need him
Just as he needs me.
