By Heart
by Ben Huberman
You’re asked to recite a poem (or song lyrics) from memory — what’s the first one that comes to mind? Does it have a special meaning, or is there another reason it has stayed, intact, in your mind?
To a mother her children will always be her greatest treasure. Love you for always.

“You Needed Me”, Anne Murray
This is a song I sang in choir back in 1982. I always loved it and continued to find myself singing it throughout the years. Last year I met a man. The most wonderful man. Soon after this song again found its way into my head. I tried to share it with him by singing it out loud but I was so overcome with the reality of how much every word of this song had come true for me that I could not even finish a verse. I wept. I found the song and played it for him and we held each other as we listened.
I cried a tear, you wiped it dry
I was confused, you cleared my mind
I sold my soul, you bought it back for me
And held me up and gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me
You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me
And I can’t believe it’s you I can’t believe it’s true
I needed you and you were there
And I’ll never leave, why should I leave, I’d be a fool
‘Cause I finally found someone who really cares
You held my hand when it was cold
When I was lost, you took me home
You gave me hope when I was at the end
And turned my lies back into truth again
You even called me friend
You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me
You needed me, you needed me
