Help Is On The Way

help is on the way

we haven't been here before

i'm pretty convinced of that now

though the scenery's quite deceiving

there's still a sway in my step

and there's still a light on my path

though it's strangely unfamiliar

and i'll let you know

i don't have a clue what to think

cause the wider i spread my wings

the more i drift away

and it troubles me these days

while i never had a doubt

it's getting harder to believe

that help is on the way

she hasn't been herself

since the world allowed her in

without making arrangements

she's been told to brighten up

but it's impossible to shine

when your heart's been painted black

and in time

i guess we'll see the gain

that shimmered underneath

unless it's just bad luck

i'm telling you it's hard

to tell the two apart

like it gets harder to believe

that help is on the way

i may have seen your face

mirrored in her eyes when i woke this morning

and i might have heard your voice

whispering to me

if you don't know what you're waiting for

hold tight

cause one of these days you'll know

the deeper you descend

the closer you will be

to finding your release

there's not a load so heavy

it'll sweep you off your feet

before you're notified

that help is on the way
