I'd like to pack this in And take you to the stars We'll eat in fancy restaurants And drive in fancy cars We've tried our luck, we made a buck So lean back have some fun Oh yes my love But first just this last one We stood on these cliffs on a starless night I held your hand in mine So stand by me with all your heart I'll need you by my side Oh the river is cold and black And the bottom is a long way down Another one going underground Why can't we cut the ropes And let that poor fool go Don't you go getting weak on me Not when I need you so We stood on these cliffs on a starless night I held your hand in mine So stand by me with all your heart I'll need you by my side Don't lose your step Now we're almost there Go wash your face and comb your hair So trust me now, believe in me Forever more your love you have pledged to me We stood on these cliffs on a starless night I held your hand in mine So stand by me with all your heart I'll need you by my side We'll stay at home and call this day our own Listen to a record, watch a candle burn I'm feeling kinda drowsy There's blood on the floor When I'm gone you still will have My love for evermore My love for evermore My love for evermore
