Gary Louris - Helping Hand Lyrics

And when it seems every beginning is an end
And all you're really looking for's a friend
I'll be there to lend a helping hand

The days you're feeling lost and lonely in a crowd
And every move you make is filled with doubt I'll be there to help you work it out

At times the darkness can obliterate the light
A sunny day becomes a desperate night
I'm here to tell you everything's alright

I know the world can be indifferent and cold
It's not what you believe it's what your told
Are you just a product bought and sold
That's when you need someone to have and hold

Old fate she never seems to give but only takes
And all you're looking for's an even break
But every turn you make is a mistake
Sleep and I'll be there when you awake

The game is fixed you curse the cards that you've been
Dealt
You can't recall the last time that you felt
I'll listen to the secrets that you've held
With love the coldest heart will always melt
