I Just Needed You

I thought I wanted fame
Thought I wanted money
To just be somebody
Thought I wanted fancy clothes
People come and go
A pill to pick me up when I'm feeling low
Wanted a fast car
To drive far
A big house with no doubts
And just everything on demand
A quick fling
A one-night stand

This can't be what I want
'Cause I feel like I'm coming undone
The world is cruel
It teaches you
That you need all these things

I just needed you
I just needed you
To be happy

I thought I wanted magazines
To validate me
It didn't stop my insecurities
Or having too many friends
To lie and pretend
But I'd go to bed alone again

Why do they try
To make us feel like
We need these things to survive
Time after time?

I just needed you
I just needed you
I just needed you
I just needed you

I felt like I couldn't breathe
Nothing made sense to me
Except you
I felt like I couldn't see
Knew I was missing a piece
And it was you

'Cause I just needed you
I just needed you
I just needed you
I just needed you
To be happy
