I Need You - by Jars of Clay

Strangely out of place
There's a light filling this room where
None would follow before
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
Do I want shelter from the rain
Or the rain to wash me away?

CHORUS
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for

I might sound like a fool
But I think I felt you moving closer to me
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away

CHORUS
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(all I'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for

Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
I only had a second to spare
But all the time in the world to know you're there
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away

I need you, I need you, I need you
