You needed me - Anne Murray (1979) live (with lyrics)


From Johnny Cash, 1979 Christmas Special




(Lyrics)

I cried a tear, you wiped it dry
I was confused, you cleared my mind
I sold my soul, you bought it back for me
And held me up and gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me

You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me

And I can't believe it's you
I can't believe it's true
I needed you and you were there
And I'll never leave, why should I leave?
I'd be a fool 'cause I finally found someone who really cares

You held my hand when it was cold
When I was lost you took me home
You gave me hope when I was at the end
And turned my lies back into truth again
You even called me "friend"

You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me

You needed me, you needed me

When you're gone - Maggie Macneal (1976) live (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

I never had another lover
It was you who did discover
How to really touch my heart
Now you are telling me you're going
When my love for you is showing
We should never be apart
So please don't turn your back upon me
Without your love I die slowly
You have taken half my life
Every step I do for you, love
Every move is born of true love
It's a dream I won't survive
'Cause when you're gone
It's not of any use that I go on
That is understood
Don't leave me alone
The stars won't twinkle in the sky no more
The tree will lose it's bloom
The birds won't sing their song
The birds won't sing their song
When I take your hand
I feel my love for you
Will never end or disappear
Please understand, I am near
Love is beautiful, love is dear
When you're here
If you stay with me I promisse
I'll tell the world about us
I'll sing your favorite songs
I'll make you dream a dream forever
Bring you flowers
Till you surrender
I'll prove my love is strong
My friend you're gone
It's not of any use that I go on
That is understood
Don't leave me alone
The stars won't twinkle in the sky no more
The tree will lose it's bloom
The birds won't sing their song
'Cause when you're gone
It's not of any use that I go on
That's understood
Don't leave me alone
The stars won't twinkle in the sky no more
The tree will lose it's bloom
The birds won't sing their song...

Can't you feel my love? - Mathieu Fisher (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

I just can't get through to you
Whatever I do to you 
I keep trying over and over again 
But you keep lookin' through me 
Like you never knew me 
Over and over and over again 
And I know you don't care 

You pretend that I'm not there 
I've done everything I can 
And I just can't understand 


[chorus]: Baby can't you feel my love 
Baby can't you feel my love? 
Baby can't you feel my love?
Reaching out to you 

I can't get you off my mind 

I think of you all the time 
Over and over and over again 
But I know you don't care 

You just pretend that I'm not there 
I've done everything I can 
And I still can't understand 


Baby can't you feel my love?
Baby can't you feel my love? 
Baby can't you feel my love? 
Reaching out to you 


The fool - Gilbert Montagné (1970) with lyrics



(Lyrics)

No, no don't let me play the fool,
I can't really love you by the rules
For my love is sweet and free
No, no don't let me play the fool,
Fot this thing you ask oh ! it's so cruel,
Can't you see it isn't me.
What you ask of me is just to be your clown,
Someone you can lead about and show around,
Why make of our love a children's puppet show
Can't I simply love you in the way I know,
What I ask of you is not to turn away,
Listen to the words that i'm trying to say,
Our love could be a new adventure ev'ry day,
Cause I love you, love you, love you, love you.
No, no don't let me play the fool,
I can't really love you by the rules
For my love is sweet and free
No, no don't make me play the fool,
Fot this thing you ask oh ! it's so cruel,
Can't you see it isn't me.
All I want from you is a little sympathy
Try to understand what it would be for me
All my hopes and dreams would now be bound and tied
Any hope of freedom would have surely died,
I want to know that I can fall in love again
And be sure that my love will never not restrain
So please just let me love you in the way I know,
Cause I love you, love you, love you, love you.
No, no don't let me play the fool,
I can't really love you by the rules
For my love is sweet and free
No, no don't make me play the fool,
Fot this thing you ask oh ! it's so cruel,
Can't you see it isn't me...

You - Silverwing (subtitled in portuguese) with lyrics



(Lyrics)

Inspiration this is you
And fascination it’s also you
I’ll share your heartaches
I’ll help you through
So don’t worry
I’m part of you

Sometimes silence
Sometimes wild
Sometimes a lady
Sometimes a child
You are  a mirror
I’m looking through
So don’t worry
I’m part of you

You are bitter
You are rude
Sometimes warm and caresome
Sometimes cool
I am bearing
‘Cause of you
You are a woman
All through and through

You’re like water
Clean and blue
And your laughter
Makes me brand new
You are closely a part of me
Somethings tells me
We’ meant to be

Now I hope
I said it well
‘Cause it’s more than any spoken word can tell
You are a woman
All through and through
When I’m dying, I’ll die for you.
