She doesn't act as tho' she cares.

But deep inside I know she cares.

And that is why I'm tied

Right by her side.

As long as she needs me

I know where I must be

I'll cling on steadfastly

As long as she needs me

As long as life is long

I'll love her right or wrong

And somehow, I'll be strong

As long as she needs me

If you are lonely
Then you will know

When someone needs you

You love them so

I won't betray her trust

Though some folks say I must

I've got to stay true just

As long as she needs me

If you are lonely Then you will know

When someone needs you
You love them so

I won't betray her trust

Though people say I must

I've gotta stay true just
As long as she needs me
