Believe me my friend of many years   Of late I've been crying many tears   Do my sad eyes give it all away?      Believe me my friend I'm feeling low   If anyone I thought that you should know   So can I stay, just a little more?      Hold onto me, like I hold on to you   Or maybe it's the other way around   And either way, I'll stay next to you      I've heard there's a man who walked on waves   He lifted the dead up from there graves   How can it be? I don't know      He lived all his life for you and I   Right until the day that he died   And I'm still free to choose my love      Hold onto me, like I hold on to you   Or maybe it's the other way around   And either way, I'll stay next to you
