about

Saxophone - CHRIS SMALLWOOD

Original version appears on the album "Into Your Head"

lyrics

Would you meet me half way, If I came to you and said,
I’d like to be someone else today,
Would you take me by the hand, Kiss me where I stand,
And tell me that you’d have me anyway.

Would you put me in your car, Take me off so far,
That we won’t make it back to here tonight,
Will you hold my spinning head, Reassure me I’m not dead,
It’s just the moon making everything white.

Tell me that you’ll help me, Tell me that you’ll help me,
Help me ‘til I’m feeling better, Help me ‘til we’re all much better.

If they come to put me down, In the middle of the town,
Would you run through the crowds screaming my name,
Would you leap to my defence, Ignore my lack of common sense,
Even if I tell you it’s just a game.

CHORUS

If I fall into the fire, When they call me a bloody liar,
Will you come through the smoke without a mask,
Will you believe my words, Even when they’re muddled and slurred,
Offer to do anything I ask.

Tell me that you’ll help me, Tell me that you’ll help me,
Help me to keep walking, Help me to keep breathing,
Help me ‘til I’m feeling better, Help me ‘til we’re all much better.
