Make It By Yourself |
|
You say you're down and out |
|
And need some help to get you through each day |
|
Well, here's a thought or two |
|
I've used and like to pass them on your way |
|
I found them lying there |
|
The answers that you say you're looking for |
|
Make what you will of them |
|
And you can change the way it was before |
|
You got to make it by yourself |
|
You know you got to make it by yourself |
|
I'll be your friend and i'll lend a helping hand |
|
But you got to try and help yourself before i can |
|
I hear you talk of all the happiness |
|
And emptiness you've known |
|
Well, let me reassure you |
|
Never were you really all alone |
|
They say in quiet desperation many people cannot see |
|
They cannot see the simple truth |
|
That's not the way it has to be |
|
You got to find it for yourself |
|
God helps the man who helps himself, amen |
|
I am your friend and i'll lend a helping hand |
|
But you gotta try and help yourself before i can |
|
We got to help each other (each other) |
|
You got to help your brother when you can |
|
When you can |
|
Now don't you think that i was preachin' |
|
I'm just reachin' out for you |
|
'cause that's the only way |
|
That i know how to get the message through |
|
Then you in turn and got to learn and teach it |
|
To somebody who |
|
Who felt the happiness and emptiness the same as you |
