lyrics

I've been putting Up the walls so I can hide
I've been looking for myself and not my pride
I assume that they should recognize all of The signs
My world collapsed as I filtered through
The darkness that embraced the light the truth
I've held onto the hope but now I can't believe it's happening to you

Oh, what's to say when I know you're going away you're what I needed you're what I needed
Oooh oooh ooh ooh
Who's to say how I do what's it mean to you she's what I needed she's what I needed
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

I've been putting off the calls while I try
To figure out a better way tonight
Little did you know my heart is racing as I lie here waiting
To find the words to write
I have no intention but to see you smile
A loss for words comes easy in these times
Letting go of all you do is everything and anything

Oh, what's to say when I know you're going away you're what I needed you're what I needed
Oooh oooh ooh ooh
Who's to say how I do what's it mean to you she's what I needed she's what I needed
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

I’ve been waiting holding on
Learning time will still move on
With your love my heart beats strong but I won't, I won’t ever move on
Oh oh You've left your mark
I will never lose that spark

What's to say when I know you're going away you're what I needed she's what I needed

Who's to say how I do what's it mean to you she's what I needed she's what I needed

Oh, what's to say when I know you're going away you're what I needed you're what I needed
Oooh oooh ooh ooh
She's what I needed x4
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
