Walk along with me for just awhile
This town can beat you down
It's mile after lonely mile
With so many faces and unfamiliar places every day

I started out, I came here all alone
Now win or lose I know I never can go home
'Cause they'll laugh while they're drinking
and say what were you thinking anyway

Help me, help me, I think I'm falling
Down into the hole that I just finished crawling out of
I'm down on my knees
I will keep watching
I will keep waiting to see
I will keep waiting right here to see

I spent a little time out west
A year in Calgary
Tried to go up north, but that was not the job for me
No I'm made for the city, and it's right here in the city I will be

Help me, help me, I think I'm falling
Down into the hole that I just finished crawling out of
I'm down on my knees
I will keep watching
I will keep waiting to see
I will keep waiting right here to see

I met a ballerina in the market by the sea
She told me it was complicated but she wasn't free
I said I'm right here beside you if you ever change your mind
And want to be

Help me, help me, I think I'm falling
Down into the hole that I just finished crawling out of
I'm down on my knees
Waiting til somebody
Somebody takes the best of me

Help me, help me, I think I'm falling
Down into the hole that I just finished crawling out of
I'm down on my knees
I will keep watching
I will keep waiting to see
I will keep waiting right here to see
