Doc Watson & Merle Watson - If I Needed You Lyrics

Doc Watson & Merle Watson Lyrics

"If I Needed You"
(originally by Townes Van Zandt)

If I needed you, would you come to me
Would you come to me for to ease my pain
If you needed me I could 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

Baby's with me now since I showed her how
To lay her lily hand in mine
Who could ill agree she's a sight to see
A treasure for the poor to find
