Lyrics Gordon Lightfoot

Gordon Lightfoot

You'll Still Be Needing Me

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
