| Brother, you’ve fallen far behind
|
| What is it that’s on your mind?
|
| Sister, oh how do you decide?
|
| What do you see through your clouded eyes?
|
| On every corner I turn to
|
| Some variation of «help me please,»
|
| Can’t pretend I don’t see you there
|
| How should I feel?
|
| Brother, you’ve fallen to your knees
|
| What do your children need?
|
| The distance is never out of reach
|
| There’s only inches between you and me
|
| On every corner I turn to
|
| Some variation of «help me please,»
|
| Can’t pretend I don’t see you there
|
| How should I feel?
|
| Hey, mister, well I’m lookin' your way, you know
|
| I wouldn’t ask if things weren’t like they were today
|
| Count up the corners of 'em, add up the dollars for 'em
|
| Hey, mister, well I’m lookin' your way, you know
|
| Ten thousand of 'em all over town
|
| I wouldn’t ask if things weren’t like they were today
|
| But is it really helpin', whatever I do?
|
| Hey, mister, well I’m lookin' at you, you know
|
| Will I feel good about it, will I feel a fool?
|
| I hate to beg, 'cause I feel like such a fool?
|
| On every corner I turn to
|
| Some variation of «help me please,»
|
| Can’t pretend I don’t see you there
|
| How should I feel? |
