You Needed Me
Vocals: Canadian pop, country, and adult contemporary music singer, who has sold over 55 million album copies worldwide Anne Murray.
Lyrics: American songwriter, pianist, and producer Randy Goodrum.
You Needed Me
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.

Being bombarded with texts containing links?
Don’t click on that link. Take a moment and ask yourself does this seem legitimate. If in doubt, contact the sender on a verified number to check its legitimacy.
Taxi collecting your card?
AIB will never send a taxi or courier to collect your physical card, PIN, or any security details. Always keep these details in your possession.
Offer to fix your PC?
A helpful caller wants to fix broadband or account issues or give you a refund, but needs to take control of your device. Stop. Do not download software or applications (apps) that can allow a scammer access to your personal device. Never provide one time pass codes or card reader codes to any cold caller.
Investment Opportunity too good to be true?
Then it generally is just that. Be cautious of ads advertising high returns on investments. Make sure that you’re dealing with the real provider. Always verify the provider is regulated and seek independent financial advice before parting with your money.
Checking in on your accounts?
Always login to your account by using our website at AIB.ie or by using our secure Mobile App on your phone. Browsing the internet for login pages can be unsafe and may result in you landing on non-AIB sites.
Security Codes being requested?
Always be cautious when providing codes from your AIB security device. Be familiar with when these are required. Do not provide extra codes when requested out of the blue.
Received an email with payment instructions?
Never make a payment on the back of an email instruction. Verbally confirm the details with the sender on a known and trusted contact number.
Please do discuss the above information with elderly parents, relatives and friends who, because of age, may not be fully IT literate.
