Way back when you and I first met, you always would be with a smile You seemed so in control to me As the days and the months went by I slowly came to realize the real you wasn't there at all You were just pretending to be strong "I need your smile, here by my side" Those words you' d sometimes say was your S.O.S Will you do me a favor now? Show me your weakness, cause I want to be still here with you There by your side Always walked three steps ahead of me Every now and then you would look back to see if I was there doing OK Feeling safe with you I still recall "I need your smile, here by my side" Those words you'd sometimes say was your S.O.S Will you do me a favor now? Show me your weakness, I need to be with you "I want you here, right here with me" To be the real "Me" , I know now that I need only you Here by my side I'll say it now "I need you so"
