Help, I need somebody
Help, not just anybody
Help, you know I need someone, help

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

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

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

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

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these daya 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 you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me...

Got a good reason, for taking the easy way out
Oh, got a good reason, for taking the easy way out
I was a day tripper, one way driver yeah
It took me so long to find out, but I found out

Tried to please her, she only plays one night stands
I tried to please her, she only plays one night stands
She was a day tripper, sunday driver yeah
It took me so long to find out, but I found out

Got a good reason, taking the easy way out
I got a good reason, for taking the easy way out
I was a day tripper, sunday driver yeah
It took me so long to find out, but I found out

To be someone must be a wonderful thing
A famous footballer a rock singer
Or a big film star, yes I think I would like that

To be rich and have lots of fans
Have lots of girls to prove that I'm a man
And be No. 1 - and liked by everyone

Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
They really dig me and I dig them
And the bread I spend - is like my fame - 
It's quickly diminished

And there's no more swimming 
In a guitar shaped pool
No more reporters at my beck and call
No more cocaine it's only ground chalk
No more taxis now we'll have to walk

But didn't we have a nice time -
Didn't we have a nice time
Oh wasn't it such a fine time

I realize I should have stuck to my guns
Instead shit out to be one of the bastard sons
And lose myself - I know it was wrong - 
But it's cost me a lot

And there's no more drinking 
After the club shuts down,
I'm out on me arse with the rest of the clowns
It's really frightening without a bodyguard
So I stay confined to my lonely room

You see this guy, this guy's in love with you
Yes i'm in love, I love you the way I do
When you smile i can tell
We know each other very well
How can I show you?
I plan, I got to know you cos

I heard some talk
They say you think I'm fine
Yes, I'm in love
And what I do to make you mine

Tell me now, is it so
Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking
Don't let my heart keep breaking cos
I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love, in love, with this guy
If not I'll just die

Tell me now, is it so
Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking
Don't let my heart keep breaking cos
I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love, in love, with this guy
If not I'll just die

I want it now 
I want it now 
Not the promises of what tomorrow brings 
I need to live in dreams today 
I'm tired of the song that sorrow sings 

And I want more than I can get 
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget 

I'd walk to you through rings of fire 
And never let you know the way I feel 
Under skin is where I hide 
The love that always gets me on my knees 

And I want more than I can get 
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget 

Nothing ever lasts forever 
Nothing ever lasts forever 
Nothing ever lasts forever 
Nothing ever lasts forever 

I want it now 
I want it now 
Don't tell me that my ship is coming in 
Nothing comes to those who wait 
Time's running out the door you're running in 

So, I want more than I can get 
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget 

Nothing ever lasts forever 
Nothing ever lasts forever 
Nothing ever lasts forever 
Nothing ever lasts forever 

All the shadows and the pain 
Are coming to you 
All the shadows and thepain 
Are coming to you...
                            

I believe in lovers, I believe in friends
I believe in heaven here on earth
'til the, the beginning ends

Love me and leave me
Love me and leave me
Love me and leave me
Leave me to love
Don't you ever tell me it came from above
Just love me and leave me
Leave me to love

I believe in heroes, I believe in stars
I believe that we'll meet one day,
Say hello in some astral bar

I believe in brothers 
I know you know who you are
Here's to those who bore us 
And made us what we are

You're the devil in me
I brought in from the cold
You said your body was young
But your mind was very old
You're coming on strong and I like the way
The visions we had have faded away
You're part of a life I've never had
I'll tell you that it's just too bad
(X5)

You're coming on strong
You're showing your colour
Like a setting sun
