Lyrics
If I Needed You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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.
