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
Oh yes he does need me
In spite of what you see
I'm sure that he needs me
I miss him so much
when he is gone
But when he's near me
I carry on
The love I feel inside
The love I have to hide
The hell I've got my pride
As long as he needs me
If you are lonely
then you will know
When someone needs you
you love him 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
