Gilbert O'Sullivan - Help Is On The Way lyrics

rate me

So you want to love me

But you don't know why

You've got a problem up ahead

That's in sight

Love to meet your uncle

Only as I was saying

I have a relative myself the same type

Call yourself a man

I said, why not if it's true

I said, you call yourself a taxi and fly

And like a bird she flew out

of the window

Leaving me a box of milk tray

A note upon it to say

If nothing's alright it's okay

'Cos help is on the way.

Sorry to disturb you

At this awful hour

But I was wondering

If you have the time

Supposed to meet a woman here

At half past eight

And now you're telling me

It's already nine

Man you should have seen it

As the boat overturned

There was a cry out

From a hand or a leg

And like a stone she went

Down to the bottom

Leaving us above in dismay

Despite the captain who'd say

If nothing's alright it's okay

'Cos help is on the way.

I got a letter

It came as a note

It said, I'm sorry

I haven't spoke

It was written out in Braille

So I knew that it felt good

Right from the start

solo part

I tried to reach you

but you weren't at home

I left a message

Right after the tone It said, sorry I'm not in

If you'd care to call again

I'll get back to you - back to you.

So you want to love me

But you don't know why

You've got a bee up in your bonnet

That's fine

Nothing like a buzz going around

Your head

To clear the cobwebs from the state

Of your mind

Well, you won't believe this

But believe me

It's true

I had this woman

In the palm of my hand

When like a madman

She leapt out the windowv Leaving me a box of milk tray

A note upon it to say,

If nothing's alright it's okay

'Cos help is on the way.
