need you now

i've been trying to win

trying to fend for myself way too long

living in doubt

living without

i've been so alone

i know that i need you

i know that i need you now

i was wasting my time trying to find

something real for my soul

and now that i'm here

you're making it clear

i'm not my own

and i know that i need you

i know that i need you now

now

this is all that i am

here

with my outstretched hands

cause i really need you

i know that i need you now

i'm running in place to try and erase all that i've done

but you find a way to replace my pain with love

and i know that i need you

i know that i need you now

now

this is all that i am

here

with my outstretched hands

cause i really need you

i know that i need you now

when i'm afraid

you comfort me

when i'm ashamed

you lift me up

yeah you lift me up

now

this is all that i am

here

with my outstretched hands

cause i really need you

i know that i need you now

now

this is all that i want

here

is where i belong

now

i'm giving you everything now

when i'm afraid

you comfort me

when i'm ashamed

you show me how

i need you now
