Flack, Roberta - Just When I Needed You Lyrics
Darlin' Angel,
Somebody, Save me,
Yeah and I feel all right,
I won't forget how I feel tonight, 'cause you're mine
You're right on time
Just when I needed you,
You had your arms around my life
You understood, said you could,
I never dreamed you would
Be there when I needed you,
You were the only land in sight.
You seem to be, all I need
Somebody somewhere heard me cry
Somebody gave me you when I,
I needed you (huh oh, huh oh)
(Ooh yeah)
Just when I needed you,
Up when my mission in my mind
It came to me, in a dream
I wondered what could it be?
And just when I needed you
You made me see that I can run
So naturally I believed,
Somebody sent me you when I,
Somebody somewhere heard me cry,
Somebody gave me you when I (gave me what I needed),
I needed you (huh oh)
Somebody sent me you, you (somewhere)
Somebody somewhere (sent me you)
(Say yeah)
Somebody gave me you,(gave me what I needed)
I needed you
[x4]

Today's music isn't music. This is what music is suppose to be.
Who is still listening in 2019?!?!?!?!? This song has always brought tears to my heart. It's so sweet and heart warming. As a little girl I dreamt of having the type of love in my life that this song talks about. This song got me through some tough times!

23 years ago my friend was on the floor of her bathroom holding on to her toilet throwing up from a broken heart as I stood in the door frame watching. I said to myself, if she was mine, I promise I would never ever make her feel that kind of pain. This nov we are going on 21 years, she is now my wife. We’ve been through breast cancer and all, she’s had both breasts removed. I’m still here because like this song says, “I needed you” she needed me then and now and nothing else matters. I ain’t going nowhere! I love my wife. ❤️
Timeless!!!
I love this song sooo much
Beautiful beautiful song
Thought it waz Dianna. But it was a choice between the two. Heard this a few timez glad ive found it. Its beautiful. Cant imagine a song or singer of now (2019) singing with such depth.

Busting loose brought me here
Who dislikes this song!?? I wanna feel this way about a man...Ms Flack this is an amazing song!! Kudos to you.
OMG - the lyrics touch me so deeply - too bad we didn’t work out....
Just When I Needed this song. First time watching Bustin' Loose in 30 years, and I had to look up this great song.
Oh wow. What a time capsule of a gem! My Aunt gave me and my two cousins money to see Bustin Loose at movies back in the day. We were around 10-14 yrs old. We stayed and watched it twice. First time I ever did that. Can't count the numerous times I've watched this on tv, vhs, and dvd, but this song really takes me back to great memories of long summer days, backyard football, family cookouts, comic book records & battling it out on Intellivision, Stratego & Electronic Quarterback. Amazing how music transcends time.
I love it
It feels soooo dam good to be black !!!!!!👍🏾
The soundtrack for "Bustin' Loose" was everything and Roberta Flack is a musical genius. I'm surprised that a lot of people don't remember this song because it was one of her most beautiful songs ever.
This is my jam!😀
I sent this song to my mother..
😭😭😭😭
Love🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Any 90s Babies Hip To This 2019
This song makes me want to cry.
And here it is in 2019... Just when I needed this song.
Best song ever..those guitar riffs though. I remember watching Cicely Tyson as Ms. Vivian Perry and Richard Pryor in 'Bustin Loose'
This is dedicated to the man who helped me with overcoming my depression, i still am but not like i was before, this song is a tear jerker
I can't believe that I've slept on this song. Can't wait to step to it tonight with my honey
My old ass daddy swear he know EVERY oldies ever made, I had him scratching his bald spot with this one. (He know about Roberta he just didn't know this song)
He probably didn't watch the movie. 😂😂
Smfh Luther and Roberta mannn
My favorite song of all time. My Pops and I used to listen to this all the time. Roberta Flack is DOPE
Who feel this song besides me real feelings
This song made me cry literally so i feel this song completely
@SheliaL37 try jerry butler understanding mellow i get deep about my music
There's a guy named I know cash I told him on YouTube he should bring this one back out it's a story of himself in the making if there is a God the Asiatic black people we'll get reparations is long overdue dude talking about a wall how about giving the Asiatic black people their money in the zillions of dollars should be in my bank account nothing says zillion but 20 million I would accept
BEAUTIFUL !!!! GOD BLESS ROBERTA FLACK !!!!
My daddy used to sing this to me as a baby... I got the courage to sing it to him last month when he passed away. Thank you for giving me my voice Walter Wayne Strong 1951-2018.

Congrats to newlyweds the Cole's. Was just Best Man at my boys wedding and this song was played. I swear the gangstas were fighting back tears.
Absolute perfection!!
You can hear Luther singing at the beginning!
Timeless Classic......

💓💓💓💕💕💖💖💖💖💖💕💓💕💕💓
With record crackle at the end of the song..... Classic
Luther's intro is beautiful!
This entire soundtrack is so awesomely perfect R&B ..This is blue print how Soul music should sound
Wayment. I thought Lee Chamberlain sang that? There's a You Tube thingie with her that said she sang that. What's up with that?
This song reminds me of when I was a child. I heard it for the first time in the movie with Richard Pryor "Bustin Loose."
Luther Vandross is singing in the background killing it. She is one of the most underated artist in history.
What I remember the most about Ms. Flack, other than her fine voice, is the fact that she was one of the first women to wear fashionable braids. Not the rope people are wearing on their heads today.
Busting loose brought me here
Wow , the choral arrangement at the beginning, is just incredible.
This Is A Very Very Special Song Especially I Felt Sorry 4 Those Children This Song Fits This Movie 2 Those Children It Was Funny 2 I Love Comedy.
This song is all i remember about the movie bustin loose
You don't remember Joe going into the woods and running into the KKK? Lol.
In a class of its own!!
Brings me a warm feeling everytime I hear this song. Loved it as a kid me my sister and brother loved bustin loose. I still love this song as much as I did over 35 yrs ago.
I just heard this song today and wow it's awesome,a beautiful songs done perfectly by Roberta Flack, a sweet love song for all times.
It's like I'm discovering this song for the first time. Just realised the bass is great.
This song is so pretty. It reminds me of the early eighties, when I was a kid. We were broke, but we had togetherness. Now, I have been estranged from my mom for 10 years. This reminded me of her.
I'm sorry. Praying you and your mother can somehow find your way back to each other.
So wish this recording were released on itune/amazon/spotify or cd. Have the lp but would love to have it on my ipod
True voice people don't sang like this today so soul touching lyric.
I hear Luther!!
Really glad you posted this! And, just for the "record", those pops and hisses at the end proves that you appreciate the irreplaceable and untouchable emotions you can only get from vinyl! Great recording, from the voice of the elegant Roberta Flack!
Luther's intro is divine.
Just a beautiful song. I've always enjoyed it
I will forever love me some Roberta Flack
Now it's 103 people who don't like this song well they do not know good music if they hear it I guess because this is a good song it was up to me it'd be on the radio every other day I'm maybe once a day I would love to make a remake of this song Beautiful song uplifting talking about God. And God's people I should be going to Studio real soon they remaking go platinum 50 Platinum that would be a dream come true
