| Your running circles over my mind |
| I keep on walking in a straight line, straight line |
| Closer to you than any other time |
| But there’s been a change |
| I’m lost in words cause there’s so much to say |
| The years I’ve known you all led up to this day |
| Watching those lovers slip and fade away, just part of the game |
| It was you, oh-oh, you were just what I needed |
| Because you, oh-oh-oh, bring the best out of me |
| And I don’t mind what you may not know, 'cause what I’ve found is: |
| you were just what I needed |
| Know well enough that you don’t play by rules, and you can choose any one tip |
| of your booze |
| I’m holding out 'till I’m holding you, with no baggage to claim |
| You ask me with a nod if something’s up |
| I switch the topic and return to my car |
| I realize this shit has got to stop, 'cause I need to explain: |
| It was you, oh-oh, you were just what I needed |
| Because you, oh-oh-oh-oh, you let me be who I be |
| But if I keep on making the same mistakes again, oh |
| I won’t learn the lesson, 'cause here is my confession, 'cause it’s driving me |
| insane, yeah |
| Here I go now, one more time girl, I need to say: |
| It was you, oh-oh, you were just what I needed |
| Because you, oh-oh-oh, you-you-you-you, you bring the best out of me |
| And I don’t mind what that you may not know, 'cause what I found is: |
| you were just what I needed, yeah |
| Here I go, say it louder, I need to say |
