As Long as Needs Me

As long as he needs me
Oh, yes, he does need me
In spite of what you see,
I'm sure that he needs me

Who else would love him still
when they've been used so ill?
He knows I always will,
as long as he needs me
I miss him so much
when he is gone
But when he's near me
I don't let on The way I feel
inside

The love I have to hide
The hell, I've gone my pride
as long as he needs me

He doesn't say the things he should
He acts the way he thinks he should
But all the same, I'll play this game
his way
As long as he needs me
I know where I must be
I'll cling on steadfastly
as long as he needs me
As long as life is long
I'll love him right or wrong
And somehow, I'll be strong,
as long as he needs me
If you are lonely
then you will know
When someone needs you,
you love them so I won't
betray his trust, though
people say I must
I've got to stay true, just
as long as he needs me
