I don't need a lot of things

I can get by with nothin'

With all the blessings life can bring

I've always needed something

But I've got all I want when it comes to lovin' you

You're my only reason, you're my only truth

[chorus]

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

Oh

You're the hope that moves me

To courage again, oh yeah

You're the love that rescues me

When the cold winds rage

And it's so amazin' cause that's just how you are

And I can't turn back now

Cause you've brought me too far

[chorus]

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

Oh, yes I do, oh

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, yeah, that carries me through

I need you

Oh, yes I do

I need you

oh, oh, oh

I need you, oh-oh
