As Long As He Needs Me lyrics

As long as he needs me

Oh, yes, he does need me

In spite of what you see

I'm sure that he needs me

Who else would love him still

When I've been used so ill?

He knows I always will

As long as he needs me

I miss him so much when he is gone,

But when he's near me

I don't let on

The way I feel inside.

The love, I have to hide...

The hell! I've got my pride

As long as he needs me

He doesn't say the things he should

He acts the way he thinks he should

But all the same

I'll play this game his way

As long as life is long

I'll love him right or wrong

And somehow, I'll be strong

As long as he needs me

I won't betray his trust

Though people say I must

I've got to stay true, just

As long as he needs me
