Well, I tried so hard to settle down
But the angel of destruction keeps on houndin' me all around
But I know in my heart
The leaves are shining in the sun,
That we never really parted.
Oh no, oh, help me, lord,
Oh, help me, lord,
Please, help me, lord, yeah, yeah,
Help me to help myself,
Help me to help myself.
They say the lord helps those who helps themselves,
So I'm asking this question in the hope that you'll be kind
'Cause I know deep inside
The leaves are shining in the sun,
I was never satisfied
Oh no, oh, help me, lord,
Please, help me, lord, yeah, yeah
Help me to help myself,
Help me to help myself.
