G C
There you lay, and here I stand.
He knelt down on his knees an' took her by the hand.
We've seen some good times,
Been through some bad,
D
But somewhere between the laughter and the tears,
C
We sure had a lot of great years.
G D
He said, We didn't need fortune, didn't need fame
Em
Just a little shelter from the rain;
Your hand to hold on to.
C
When times got tough you pulled me through.
G D
We didn't need a castle made of stone,
Em
Just you there, as I grow old,
Your heart to hold on to,
C
All I ever needed was you.
Remember our first dance and our first kiss.
I pictured my life with you to be just like this.
You stood by me. (Ooh, you stood by me)
I stand by you. (I stand by you)
We share the laughter, joy, and pain,
But it's a moment like this I hope it never ends. (Ooh, it should never end.)
We didn't need fortune, didn't need fame:
Just a little shelter from the rain;
Your hand to hold on to.
When times got tough you pulled me through, (Oh, you pulled me through.)
We didn't need a castle made of stone, (No, no.)
Just you there, as I grow old, (So old.)
Your heart to hold on to:
All I ever needed was you.
Instrumental break.
(Share my life with you, girl.)
(Oh Yeah,)
(Oh, all I ever needed.)
I thank you for sharing your life with me,
For giving me a reason to believe. (Reasons to believe.)
For loving me for who I am.
We didn't need fortune, didn't need fame:
Just a little shelter from the rain;
Your hand to hold on to.
When times got tough you pulled me through, (Yeah, you pulled me through.)
We didn't need a castle made of stone, (No, no.)
Just you there, as I grow old,
Your heart to hold on to:
All I ever needed,
All I ever needed was you. (Yeah.)
