I need you Lord like a man in the desert needs a drink just to help him survive
I need you Lord like a fire in the winter makes a little cold child come alive
I need you Lord when I'm tired of the struggle and It's too tough to walk all alone
Cause I just can't make it by myself by myself I just can't make it by myself
No I just can't make it by myself
It must take a lot just to get my attention, I refuse to say I was wrong
Everything I touched fell apart until it was gone
I was sitting in the rubble when I came to my senses and a voice said "Child let me help"
I said please do cause I just can't make it by myself
I need you Lord like a man in the desert needs a drink just to help him survive
I need you Lord like a fire in the winter makes a little cold child come alive
I need you Lord when I'm tired of the struggle and It's too tough to walk all alone
Cause I just can't make it by myself by myself I just can't make it by myself
No I just can't make it by myself
Mans gotta do what a mans gotta do
But he doesn't have to do it alone
Well I did it my way, let me tell you that's a dead end street
I thought I was tough, until the goin got rough
And I thought I lost everything
I admit it Lord all i got myself was defeat
I need you Lord like a man in the desert needs a drink just to help him survive
I need you Lord like a fire in the winter makes a little cold child come alive
I need you Lord when I'm tired of the struggle and It's too tough to walk all alone
Cause I just can't make it by myself by myself I just can't make it by myself
No I just can't make it by myself
I need you Lord like a man in the desert needs a drink just to help him survive
I need you Lord like a fire in the winter makes a little cold child come alive
I need you Lord when I'm tired of the struggle and It's too tough to walk all alone
Cause I just can't make it by myself by myself I just can't make it by myself
No I just can't make it by myself
