Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Here I am, alone again and I need her now to hold my hand
She's all, she's all I ever had
She's the air I breathe
She's all, she's all I ever had
It's the way she makes me feel
It's the way she understands
She's my lover, she's my friend
And when I look into her eyes
It's the way I feel inside
Like the man I want to be
She's all I ever need
So much time, so much pain, but there's one thing that still remains
It's the, the way she cared the love we shared
And through it all she's always been there
She's all, she's all I ever had
In a world so cold, so empty
She's all, she's all I ever had
It's the way she makes me feel
It's the only thing that's real
It's the way she understands
She's my lover, she's my friend
And when I look into her eyes
It's the way I feel inside
Like the man I want to be
She's all I ever need
She's all, she's all I ever had
It's the way she makes me feel
It's the only thing that's real
It's the way she understands
She's my lover, she's my friend
And when I look into her eyes
It's the way I feel inside
Like the man I want to be
She's all I ever need
She's all I ever need
When I look into her eyes
It's the way I feel inside
Like the man I wanna be
She's all I ever need
Here I am
