If I Needed You
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,
Ah, 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.
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.
