You

For the secrets that you hide
For the tenderness you show
For the way you understand
For the part of you I never know

For the way you break my pride
For the way you stand your ground
For the way you build me up
When my foolish dreams are falling down

I need you after all is said and done
I need you long as I'm living
I need you like a river needs to run
Win or lose the answer is always you

When I look into your eyes
I see the future and the past
I see a meaning to my life
From my first breath to my very last

And the emptiness that comes
In the cold heart of the night
In the shelter of your arms
Tide me over to the morning light

I need you after all is said and done
I need you long as I'm living
I need you like a river needs to run
Win or lose the answer is always you

When you turn around and look at me I see
All those years the joy and tears your love has given me

I need you after all is said and done
I need you long as I'm living
I need you like a river needs to run
Win or lose the answer is always you
