Helpless

Lomax

 

 

 

I hold the smoking gun
I thought that I had won
And now the rain is shooting through my window

The clamor of the subway
Used to have melodic tune
And now it’s pain, just get me there

When everything just fell apart, my heart breaks
And I don’t know where I can start to comfort all these aches

Can’t you see I am helpless
Can’t you see that I’m crying all night long
Can’t you see I’m so helpless
Don’t leave me too long

The candle flickers sending messages that cannot reach
Who I’m talking to
If I could only stop the fumble of words I try to speak
I might get through

I know you say that it’s worth waiting for
For every sacrifice rewards an open door

Can’t you see I am helpless
Can’t you see that I’m crying all night long
Can’t you see I ‘m so helpless
Don’t leave me too long, too long, don’t leave me
Don’t leave me too long, too long, I try to tell you

I try to disappear, when other love comes near
And I will understand, when you take my hand

Can’t you see I am helpless
Can’t you see that I’m crying all night long
Can’t you see I’m so helpless
Don’t leave me too long
