Need All the Help I Can Get

You know it nearly killed me

When you told me we were through

I never realized all the damage he could do

I haven't been with a man

Ever since the day he left

Take it easy on me baby

I need all the help I can get.

It's so hard when you're hurt in this way

For woman to find right word to say

I trip and I stumble

And my hand beggin' to sweat

Take it easy on me baby

I need all the help I can get.

I've been walkin' wounded

Blinded by tears

Trying' to live along after all this years

Thought my love will change

But it ain't change yet

So be good to me baby

I need all the help I can get.

They say one time burned

Two time shy

For so long I could not even try

But being here with you

I feel a whole lot more like myself

take it easy on me baby

I need all the help I can get.
