If I had my way, I would say "It's over darling"
|
If I could be brave, I would say "I'm leaving you"
|
|
But I must stay on 'till all hope is gone
|
|
'Cause girl I know
|
Anywhere you go
|
You'll still be needing me
|
|
If you feel you can't make it on your own my darling
|
I'll be on your side when you can't find anyone
|
But for now let's try just to get by
|
|
Let the tide roll out
|
Let the tide roll in
|
It's time to sink or swim
|
|
la-la-la-la-la, lala-la-la-lalalala
|
la-la-la-la-la, lala-la-la-lalalala
|
|
If I could be strong, I'd be gone tomorrow morning
|
Still I play the part making life a broken toy
|
|
But I must stay on
|
'Till all hope is gone
|
|
'Cause girl I know
|
Anywhere you go
|
You'll still be needing me
|
|
Let the tide roll out
|
Let the tide roll in
|
It's time to sink or swim
|
|
la-la-la-la-la, lala-la-la-lalalala
|
la-la-la-la-la, lala-la-la-lalalala
|

You'll Still Be Needing Me
