As Long As He Needs Me Lyrics
MR. BROWNLOW spoken
Who is this man? Perhaps we can...
NANCY spoken
No! We can't! Whatever else I do, I won't turn on him!
MR. BROWNLOW spoken
But, a man who might kill you?
NANCY spoken
Yeah, but he's mine, and I'm his.
I've got to go back. I want to go back.
Sung
He doesn't act as tho' he cares.
But deep inside I know he cares.
And that is why I'm tied
Right by his side.
As long as he needs me
I know where I must be
But, will he never see
That someone else needs me?
As long as life is long...
I'll love him, right or wrong
But, something just as strong
Says someone else needs me
A child
With no one to take his part.
I'll take his part, Bill
But cross my heart!
I won't betray your trust
Tho' people say I must
My heart will stay true, just
As long as he needs me
