If I needed you Lyrics

Artist: Townes Van Zandt
Album: Live at the Old Quarter (Houston, Texas)

by Townes Van Zandt

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
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

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

It's "Who could ill agree" not "Loop and Lil agree"

I actually think it's Lu and Lil or something like that - they were his pet parrots.
