I Need You Lyrics
<b>.:: I Need You ::.</b>
Strangely out of place
There's a light filling this room where
None would follow before
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
Do I want shelter from the rain
Or the rain to wash me away?
<i>Chorus:</i>
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
I might sound like a fool
But I think I felt you moving closer to me
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away
<i>[Chorus]</i>
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
I only had a second to spare
But all the time in the world to know you're there
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away
I need you, I need you, I need you
(All I'm livin' for)
I need you, I need you, I need you
(All I'm livin' for)
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(All i'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for
There's a light filling this room where
None would follow before
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
Do I want shelter from the rain
Or the rain to wash me away?
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
But I think I felt you moving closer to me
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
I only had a second to spare
But all the time in the world to know you're there
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away
(All I'm livin' for)
I need you, I need you, I need you
(All I'm livin' for)
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(All i'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for

"You're all I'm livin' for"
I'll put a comment here because it's an awesome song.
It's about living for God. I "fight the weight" of this life and he "lifts me up". "I can't deny" the love I have for Christ, because it "burns me up inside". He is my "shelter from the rain" and "the rain to wash me away" into the river of his love. That was cheesy. But it's true because He is "all I'm living for" and boy do I need Him.
I love it....not my usually musically taste, but just saying "i need you" so passionately was amazing :)
I saw Jars of Clay play this in Gatlinburg, Tennessee at Winterfest (this big youth rally thing). I think they played this right before they covered "Girls just want to have fun". Man, it was awesome.

Haha Gray, I was there too! My brother and his friends were swaying during Girls just want to have fun...it was creepy. This is a totally awesome song and it's one of my favorites.
Definitely one of my favorite Jars of Clay songs. In the usual way I think it's one of their songs that's decisively Christian but not overtly so. Basically, he's writing about how much he needs God.....and the rest is just poetic expansion.
I just recently discovered that this was jars of clay. i used to hear it all the time on the radio and i would often get it stuck in my head.
