can you reach me

can you reach me?

would you teach me to be free?

is it such an easy thing

to be a friend?

can you reach me?

would you teach me to be free?

have you got a helping hand to lend?

it's okay - i know you're trying to wait

hoping time will hesitate

as you sit down on the phone

it's too late

when your hands begin to shake

you're trying to make it and break it all alone

and i know i can't please you

i can only try to reach out to you

can you reach me?

would you teach me to be free?

is it such an easy thing

to be a friend?

can you reach me?

would you teach me to be free?

have you got a helping hand to lend?

because

my friend

seems like everything depends

on the timing of my bending papers waiting for a song

yes

and then

seems like everybody depends

on the lifting of a hand

and. i go 'round and 'round and 'round

i be bound - i got nothing to give

but god - i'm gonna live

i'm gonna live - i'm gonna live

would you reach me? would you teach me to be free?

is it such an easy thing? be my friend - my friend - oh

be my friend

tell me

would you reach me? tell me

tell me is it easy?

could you please me? could you release me?

oh would you reach me? tell me

tell me is it easy?

would you tease me? would you believe in me?

tell me

could you reach me - tell me

tell me is it easy?

would you tease me?

release me.
