I don't need a lot of things

I can get by with nothing

With all the blessings life can bring

I've always needed something

But I've got all I want

When it comes to loving you

You're my only reason

You're my only truth

I need you like water

Like breath, like rain

I need you like mercy

From heaven's gate

There's a freedom in your arms

That carries me through

I need you

You're the hope that moves me

To courage again, and

You're the love that rescues me

When the cold winds rage

And it's so amazing

'Cause that's just how you are

And I can't turn back now

'Cause you've brought me too far

I need you like water

Like breath, like rain

I need you like mercy

From Heaven's gate

There's a freedom in your arms

That carries me through

I need you, I need you

I need you like water

Like breath, like rain

I need you like mercy

From Heaven's gate

There's a freedom in your arms

That carries me through

I need you
