Help Is On The Way

Average White Band


Seems to me that you've been stranded 
far too long 
watchin' the sands of time 
trickle away, 
Won't you talk to me, 
Tell me what's eatin' at 'cha 
Even if you don't know what to say 
You know that the time is right 
To turn this thing around - 
it's getting closer to you 
Don't give up because pain is all 
you've found 

Lighten up 'cos help is on the way 
Have a little faith in someone new 
This is not a line I'm throwin' - 
Lighten up 'cos help is on the way 

You and me, walking down easy 
streets together 
Is a dream I cannot see slippin' away 
Why don't you get to me 
Over this distance you've created 
And I'll put you in - set you free 
You know the time is right 
To turn this thing around - 
you're getting closer to me 
Don't give up because pain is all 
you've found
