Need me like I need you

You said that I deserved better,
so you told me that it was over.
But I don't deserve better;
I deserve you and only you.
You're the only one for me
and I need you to see that.

I want you to need me
like the way I need you.
I need you so much more
than what you think.

I want you to need me
like the air you breathe.
I want you to need me
like the flowers need water.
I want you to need me
like a child needs it mother.
I want you to need me
like the air you breathe.

You said that I deserved better,
so you told me that it was over.
But I don't deserve better;
I deserve you and only you.
You're the one for me
and I need you to see that.

i need youloveneed methe one
