Helpless Lyrics - Manhattan Transfer

Every day I walk some lonely street 

Searchin' 'til you come back to me 

People around just stop and stare 

As if they know the hurt I bear 

And suddenly I realize 

I'm cryin' cryin' cryin' cryin' 

'Cause I'm in a helpless situation 

And I need some consolation 

'Cause my mind is in a confusion 

And my heart feels much confusion 

Since you've been gone it keeps me cryin' cryin' cryin' cryin' 

In the shelter of your love my strength I found 

But now I'm useless, since you're not around 

I'm helpless 

Oh I'm helpless 

Since I lost your love 

Helpless 

'Cause now I need your love 

I never needed no one before 

But now I need you more and more 

Ever since you've been gone it keeps me cryin' cryin' cryin' cryin' 

I'm helpless 'til you come back to me 

Helpless in this world of grieve 

I need your words of confidence 

I need those happy times we spent 

I'm in a hopeless feel confusion 

And your love is your solution 

It's my fault 

And I won't search for you no longer 

As I go home alone 

Needing you to stop 

I'm in a helpless situation 

And I need some consolation 

And my mind is in a confusion 

And I'm having these strange illusions 

Loneliness deep inside keeps me cryin' cryin' cryin' cryin' 

In a helpless situation 

And I need your consolation 

And I'm having these strange illusions
