Missing something in my life 
Searching for it day and night 
Couldn't seem to get it right 
'Til you walked my way 
Leaving lovers one by one 
Didn't like who I'd [bad word] 
Couldn't face myself, I turn [bad word] 
Made me see that I could change 

Out of my darkness 
As I step into the light 
We get a new day 
Taking one step at a time 

You were what I needed 
I was falling 
Hiding my emotion 
You made me see the [bad word] 
Your love was what I needed 
Hear me calling 
Waiting for a lifetime 
Girl, you were my rescue 
All I needed was you 

I used to always get my way 
Told me that you wouldn't stay 
Had to face it, what you had to say 
If I wanted you 
You tell me when I did you wrong 
I guess I've known it all along 
Cared enough and you stood strong 
I believed in you 

In my [bad word] 
Tried to [bad word] someone else 
The years I've wasted 
I'd been lying to myself 

You were what I needed 
I was falling 
Hiding my emotion 
You made me see the [bad word] 
Your love was what I needed 
Hear me calling 
Waiting for a lifetime 
Hear me calling 
What I needed 
What I needed was you 

In you I found shelter 
How you believed in me, stood strong 
You were there through my darkest hour 
You lifted my spirit up 
Brought out the best in me 
And now I'll stand before you with all my love 

You were what I needed 
I was falling 
Hiding my emotion 
But you made me see the [bad word] 
Your love was what I needed 
Hear me calling 
Waiting for a lifetime 
Girl you were my rescue 
What I needed was you
