If You Should Ever Need Me (You'll Always Find Me Here)

Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby

I've always told you I'd never hold you

If you should want to go your way

If you must go dear it's better so dear

And this is all I have to say

If you should ever need me I'll be here

I just want you to feel a friend is near

You cared for me too little I could tell

And I loved you too well

Somebody else has whispered in your ear

And if you're happy I won't interfere

But still if you should ever need me dear

You'll always find me here.

Somebody else has whispered in your ear

And if you're happy I won't interfere

But still if you should ever need me dear

You'll always find me here.
