In a world where love runs the show,
the truth is that we'll always know.
Pain then becomes some kind of drug,
an addiction I can't get enough of.
And now you're standing next to me,
my soul's on fire but you just can't see.
It burns so bad that I could die,
but for you now I refuse to cry.
Because you're near, and I have no fear.
I know your truth, and there is proof.
The past still stands, and yet lives on.
As the feelings we had, have never gone.
But here I stand, just as I am.
And I won't fall again... So help me girl.
There's no chance for me right now,
that's accepted but I still wonder how.
How and why you still like me,
if things were different how could they be?
But I'm not here to sit and wonder,
why you voice still makes me heart thunder.
Not a difference can be made,
as all my pain from the past has stayed.
So help me, so help me, so help me girl.
So help me, so help me, so help me girl.
It's because you're near, that I have no fear.
I know your truth, and there is proof.
The past still stands, and yet lives on.
As though feelings we had, have never gone.
But here I stand, just as I am.
And I won't fall again... So help me girl.
