Somewhere along the way I found the meaning Woke up dreaming along the way Never quite seems the same when you awakin' And makin' up for the time is such a price to pay Then they take the dream away And it just ain't fair mama So help me through the night mama Help me ease the p-a-i-n... Tell me it's alright Help me through the night once again? (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) And that's the danger in pretending Tryin' to defend yourself from someone else's war Don't know what they're fighting for No they just don't care no So help me to see the light mama Open my eyes a-g-a-i-n... Tell me it's alright Help me through the night once again (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Would you help me mama? (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Could you (a-a-a-h...) help me? (a-a-a-h...) (ooh-ooh)
