I cried a tear,

I cried a tear, you wiped it away I was confused, you cleared my mind I sold my soul, you bought it back for me And sustained me and gave me dignity Somehow, you needed me [Both] You gave me the strength to be alone again To face the world on my own again You placed me high up on a pedestal So high I could almost see eternity You needed me, you needed me [Bridge: Anne Murray, Shania Twain & Both] And I can't believe it's you, I can't believe it's true I needed you and you were there Mmm, and I will never leave, why should I leave? I would be a fool For I finally found someone who truly cares You held my hand when it was cold When I was lost, you brought me home You gave me hope when I was at the end And turned my lies back into truth You even called me a friend
