Townes Van Zandt
If I Needed You
[Chorus]
If I needed you, would you come to me
Would you come to me, for to ease my pain?
And if you needed me, I would come to you
I would swim the seas for to ease your pain
[Verse 1]
In the night forlorn and the morning's born
And the morning shines with the lights of love
And you will miss sunrise, if you close your eyes
And that would break my heart in two
[Chorus]
If I needed you, would you come to me
Would you come to me, for to ease my pain?
And if you needed me, I would come to you
I would swim the seas for to ease your pain
[Verse 2]
Lady's with me now since I showed her how
To lay her lily hands in mine
And who would not agree she's a sight to see
And a treasure for the poor to find
[Chorus]
If I needed you, would you come to me
Would you come to me, for to ease my pain?
And if you needed me, I would come to you
I would swim the seas for to ease your pain
