If I Needed You

Townes Van Zandt

If I needed you
Would you come to me?
Would you come to me?
For you ease my pain
If you needed me
I would come to you
I would swim the seas
For to ease your pain

Well the night's forlorn
And the morning's born
And the morning's born
With the lights of love
And you'll miss sunrise
If you close your eyes
And that would break
My heart in two

If I needed you
Would you come to me?
Would you come to me?
For you ease my pain
If you needed me
I would come to you
I would swim the seas
For to ease your pain

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

If I needed you
Would you come to me?
Would you come to me?
For you ease my pain
If you needed me
I would come to you
I would swim the seas
For to ease your pain
