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 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 still 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
