WHEN I WAS YOUNGER
SO MUCH YOUNGER THAN TODAY
I NEVER NEEDED ANYBODIES
HELP IN ANY WAY
AND NOW THOSE DAYS ARE GONE
I'M NOT SO SELF ASSURED
AND NOW I FIND
I'VE CHANGED MY MIND
I'VE OPENED UP THE DOORS

[CHORUS]
HELP ME IF YOU CAN
I'M FEELING DOWN
AND I DO APPRECIATE
YOU BEING 'ROUND
OH HELP ME IF YOU CAN
I'M FEELING DOWN
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
AND EVERY NOW AND THEN
I FEEL SO INSECURE
AND NOW I JUST NEED YOU LIKE
I NEVER DID BEFORE

[CHORUS]
