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's 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 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
