Oliver! soundtrack – As Long As He Needs Me (Reprise) lyrics

He doesn't act as though 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,
Though people say I must,
My heart will stay true, just,
As long as Bill needs me!
