Help, I need somebody
Help, I need somebody
Help, not just anybody
Help, not just anybody
Help, you know I need someone
Help, you know I need someone
Help!
Help!
When I was younger, so much younger than today
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's helping anyway
I never needed anybody's helping anyway
But now these days are gone
But now these days are gone
I am not so self-assured
I am not so self-assured
And now I find I've changed my mind
And now I find I've changed my mind
And opened up the doors
And opened up the doors
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
Ajuda-me se puderes, estou me sentindo pra baixo
And I do appreciate you being around
E eu realmente aprecio você estar por perto
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Ajuda-me a colocar meus pés de volta no chão
Won't you please, please help me?
Você não poderia, por favor, me ajudar?
And now my life has changed in oh, so many ways
E agora minha vida mudou de tantas maneiras
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
Minha independência parece desaparecer na neblina
And every now and then I feel so insecure
E de vez em quando me sinto tão inseguro
I know that I just need you like I've never done before
Eu sei que eu só preciso de você como nunca precisei antes
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
Ajuda-me se puderes, estou me sentindo pra baixo
And I do appreciate you being around
E eu realmente aprecio você estar por perto
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?
Won't you please, please help me?
