| Song | The Times I Need You |
| Artist | Christopher Cross |
| Album | Secret Ladder |
| Ooh this life can surely kick your ass | |
| People smile and say this too shall pass | |
| Brother they may never care | |
| But you were always there | |
| All the times I needed you | |
| Yes you were there but where was I | |
| (Turning to the wrong protectors) | |
| Letting honest comfort pass me by | |
| (Taking love from love rejectors) | |
| I’d be in free fall | |
| But too afraid to call | |
| All the times I needed you | |
| Friendship | |
| Sitting like a dog down at your feet | |
| Kick it | |
| Ignore it | |
| But it will still be there ! | |
| Ooh my ego lies just like a song | |
| It says keep it to yourself | |
| And you’ll look strong | |
| All that time-honored crap | |
| Just helped me lose my map | |
| All the times I needed you | |
| Friendship | |
| Sitting like a dog down at your feet | |
| Kick it | |
| Ignore it | |
| But it follows you everywhere | |
| I could be a jerk sometimes | |
| You could be a jerk sometimes | |
| It’s all a matter of degrees ! | |
| Ooh now I look back and there we are | |
| (Two scared shaggy-haired | |
| mis-paired lunatics) | |
| Pooling all our cash to buy a star | |
| (Look there we are on the TV) | |
| If I had my own way | |
| I’d let you know today | |
| That I always needed you | |
| All the times I needed you |
| Ooh this life can surely kick your ass | |
| People smile and say this too shall pass | |
| Brother they may never care | |
| But you were always there | |
| All the times I needed you | |
| Yes you were there but where was I | |
| Turning to the wrong protectors | |
| Letting honest comfort pass me by | |
| Taking love from love rejectors | |
| I' d be in free fall | |
| But too afraid to call | |
| All the times I needed you | |
| Friendship | |
| Sitting like a dog down at your feet | |
| Kick it | |
| Ignore it | |
| But it will still be there ! | |
| Ooh my ego lies just like a song | |
| It says keep it to yourself | |
| And you' ll look strong | |
| All that timehonored crap | |
| Just helped me lose my map | |
| All the times I needed you | |

| Sitting like a dog down at your feet | |
| Kick it | |
| Ignore it | |
| But it follows you everywhere | |
| I could be a jerk sometimes | |
| You could be a jerk sometimes | |
| It' s all a matter of degrees ! | |
| Ooh now I look back and there we are | |
