[Verse 1]
Who'll give me comfort when the moon rides in the pines?
Who'll be my pillow when the bitter north wind whines?
Who'll lie beside me as the evening fire declines?
Will it be you, will you stay by me?
[Verse 2]
Who'll give me shelter from the wolves of discontent?
Who'll be my silence till the grumbling storm is spent?
Who'll shine my armour for the next day's tournament?
Will it be you, will you stay by me?
[Chorus]
Or should I look for another
Or spend my days in a cave or on a shelf
With only life as my brother
And find my way by myself?
[Verse 3]
Who'll bring me water when my engine overheats?
Who'll bring me ointment when the highway frets my feet?
From disappointment's showers where can I retreat
Can I come to you, will you stay by me?
[Chorus]
Or should I look for another
Or spend my days in a cave or on a shelf
With only life as my brother
And find my way by myself?
[Verse 4]
Who'll give me comfort when the moon rides in the pines?
Who'll be my pillow when the bitter north wind whines?
Who'll lie beside me as the evening fire declines?
Will it be you, will you stay by me, will you stay by me?
Will you stay by me, will you stay by me?
Oh of course you will
