The Bottom Line You are...

Verse 1

I was under the covers
Oh what would I do?
I heard a monster under the bed
and I thought I was through

But I stood there a bit longer
Teary 6-year old eyes
I saw that he was with me
The one I'd not despise

Because I needed you
I needed you
Superhero, lifesaver, goodie holder, friend
You were my all

Verse 2

I cried myself to sleep
Rejected and torn
Was life really worth it?
Why was I born?

Broken as a teenager
There were stars in my eyes
But maybe, just maybe
Someone else I'd realize

Because I needed you
I needed you
Comforter, lover, listener, friend
You were my all

Verse 3

I stood in the fork
of two narrow paths (death and pain)
And I looked back and forth
And back and forth, I was in vain

I was mired in these ways
I had no clue
That life was so much more worth it
When it was spent with you

Because I needed you
I needed you
Advisor, mentor, leader, friend
You were my all

Verse 4

I looked back on my life
It was created by you
And it was unique
Like the sun and the moon

Bridge

When I was lonely you took my hand
When I was discouraged you pushed me forward
When I was tired you took my hand
And lifted it up to feel you again

When I was angry you relieved my pain
When I was anxious you convinced me again
When I was heartbroken you took my hand
And lifted it up to feel you again

Because I needed you
I needed you
Healer, redeemer, almighty one, friend
You were my all
You were my all
You were my all... again
