Lyrics

[Intro]
Help! I need somebody
Help! Not just anybody
Help! You know I need someone
Help!
[Verse 1]
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, and I'm not so self-assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors
[Chorus]
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?
[Verse 2]
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've never done before
[Chorus]
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?
[Verse 3]
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors
[Chorus]
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?
[Outro]
Help me, help me
Ooh
