In this fading twilight After all have left your side One sweet shadow standing by The edge of time One last sweet "I love you" To echo through the ages To stir the dusty cavern Of the cold heart of time
And there was no beginning And nobody knows who's winning 'cept this end of my lonely day And I believe the story is tired But it don't make much difference anyway 'Cause I ain't got no place to hide And no one to run to
I need someone to hold my hand Someone to understand Someone I can talk to in the night She don't have to have a whole lot to say Just a little girl who wants to go my way Some sweet lady, with a mind to do me right Talkin' 'bout a sweet sweet lovin' Sweet sweet lovin' babe A little tender understanding It's all that everybody needs So remember baby In this crazy world If you ever need somebody You can call on me Call on me
