I Need You

I used to be someone to you Someone you loved and looked up to When you let go was me who pulled you through You talked about your dreams with me Your hopes and fears you let me see Now I'd give anything to be with you To hold you in my arms again To be your lover not your friend I need you With one foot always off the ground I knew I couldn't tie you down I didn't want to do that anyway And yet some force connected us Like tide or moon affected us It pulled us close then pushed us both away I always thought I'd see you again But now your heart won't let me in I need you Our love was never meant to last We seized the time and used it fast We came as close as anyone can be Against the odds we took a chance We moved together in the dance I held you tight and you held on to me And at the end I said I'd be strong But now it seems that I was wrong I need you
