Help Me Along

Talk to me softly
Or whisper real quiet
Tell me what's on your mind
Go on and try it
'Cause we got to figure out
How we got in this mess
And if we don't talk it out
All we can do is guess

You got to tell me when I'm being unkind
You got to tell me when I'm doing wrong
You got to tell me if there's something on your mind
You got to help me along

Now it may never be
More than a word or two
It may be just a little smile
Or a touch that I get from you
'Cause I've been feeling lost
And I can't find a way
To get back to you, girl
I can't find the words to say

You got to tell me when I'm being unkind
You got to tell me when I'm doing wrong
You got to tell me if there's something on your mind
You got to help me along

Talk to me, talk to me
When you got something on your mind
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
When you got something on your mind

You got to tell me when I'm being unkind
You got to tell me when I'm doing wrong
You got to tell me if there's something heavy on your mind
You got to help me along
Help me along

Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
You got to help me
When you got something on your mind
You got to take me by my hand
