When She Don't Need Me
Townes Van Zandt
When she don't need me
It makes me crazy
She say rest easy
And it makes me lazy
But when she please me
She please me all night long
My friends are leavin'
She say don't worry
They're only leavin'
There is no parting
You will be lonely
I will be here with you
On the wings of darkness
The light is soaring
And chains are bonded
Freedom is singing
Cling to the darkness
Until you've turned to song
The blues shall wash me
And sun shall dry me
The world will hide me
But she will find me
And when she find me
She will take me home
When she don't need me
It makes me crazy
She say rest easy
And it makes me lazy
But when she please me
She please me all night long
