As Long As He Needs Me

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

Who else would love him still
When I've been used so ill?
He knows I always will
As long as he needs me

I miss him so much when he is gone
But when he's near me
I don't let on

The way I feel inside
The love, I have to hide...
The hell! I've got my pride
As long as he needs me

He doesn't say the things hе should
He acts the way he thinks hе should
But all the same
I'll play this game his way

As long as life is long
I'll love him right or wrong
And somehow, I'll be strong
As long as he needs me

I won't betray his trust
Though people say I must
I've got to stay true, just
As long as he needs me
