Help me get my feet back on the ground
A
Won't you please, please help me?
 
And now my life has changed in oh, so many ways
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like I never done before
 
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate your bein' 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?
 
When I was younger so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But know these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors
 
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate your bein' 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?

Help me, help me, ooh
