I've been high, I've been down LINE 1
my head in the clouds, my hands in the ground LINE 2
in the arms of a woman, I find my way home LINE 3
in the arms of a woman, I have been lost LINE 4
when I'm so lost that this losing feels like dying
I hope you'll be by me then
when I'm so lost that this losing feels like dying
I hope you'll be by me then
as a young man, I was afraid
of my life, what would I make?
I will make love, what will I hate?
what bittersweet road will I choose to the grave?
if I'm so old 'til this oldness has me dying
I hope you'll be by me then
if I'm so old 'til this oldness has me dying
I hope you'll be by me then
I'm sick of you, I'm sick of me
I'm sick of war, I'm sick of peace
I'm sick of sound like I'm sick of silence
I grow sick of the darkness 'til I'm sick of the light
when I'm so sick that this sickness has me dying
I hope you'll be by me then
when I'm so sick that this sickness has me dying
I hope you'll be by me then
I hope you'll be by me then

once as a boy, I saw what happened
I saw them beat him down to the cold, cold ground
I watched those big boys beat that man down
I was too weak, too weak to take a stand
when I'm so weak that this weakness feels like dying
I hope you'll be by me then
when I'm so weak that this weakness feels like dying
I hope you'll be by me then
and if I'm old 'til this oldness feels has me dying
I hope you'll be by me then
so I will live as I see fit
and there will be those who will not like it
in the arms of a woman, I found my way home
so to the arms of a woman, I will always go
if I'm old 'til this oldness has me dying
I hope she'll be by me then
if I'm old 'til this oldness has me dying
