"If I Ever Needed You" lyrics

"If I Ever Needed You"

It's taken some time to learn
How much it means to earn
A love that's only asking to be loved in return
But I've turned my back on you
Only to find it's true
Of all the arms that held me, no one holds me quite like you
Stay with me, oh, stay with me

Baby, if I ever needed you I need you now
There's nothing in my life that I'm more sure of
Since I've fallen into your love
And I promise I'll make up for all the hurt somehow
And I think it's time you knew
If I ever needed you I need you now

I know that I should have seen
To leave you alone could mean
An open invitation into someone else's dream
But stay with me, oh, stay with me

Baby, if I ever needed you I need you now
There's nothing in my life that I'm more sure of
Since I've fallen into your love
And I promise I'll make up for all the hurt somehow
And I think it's time you knew
If I ever needed you I need you now

Though the words I spoke to win your heart came easily then
Now I'm speaking from my heart
When I say to you again

Baby, if I ever needed you I need you now
There's nothing in my life that I'm more sure of
Since I've fallen into your love
And I promise I'll make up for all the hurt somehow
And I think it's time you knew
If I ever needed you I need you now
If I ever needed you I need you now
