My Morning Jacket - I Needed It Most Lyrics

I needed it most
When I was eighteen
But now that I'm older
I don't need many things
Just someone to hold
That's what you give me
When dark touches your skull baby
Ah, babe, you can drop that on me

So I say Lord
All the heavens you've made
Can't hold back the ghosts
That haunt my baby and me
Oh can't ye hold 'em back
From comin' on in
To a lovely woman
That just wants
Her mind back again

I cannot crumble
What you want this to be
Or bring peace of mind
If it ain't there to see
Ah, if you don't know yourself
How could you ever know me
But to have and to hold you
Yeah, that's the way its gotta be
