If I Needed You Songtext / Lyric

(Townes Van Zandt)



If I needed you would you come to me,

Would you come to me, and ease my pain?

If you needed me

I would come to you

I'd swim the seas for to ease your pain






In the night forlorn the morning's born

And the morning shines with the lights of love

You will miss sunrise if you close your eyes

That would break my heart in two



The lady's with me now since I showed her how

To lay her lily hand in mine

Loop and Lil agree she's a sight to see

And a treasure for the poor to find
