Lyrics The Four Tops

The Four Tops

Helpless

Every day I walk some lonely street

Searchin' 'til you come back to me

People around just stop and stare

As if they know the hurt I bear

And suddenly I realize

I'm in a helpless situation

And I need some consolation

'Cause my mind is in a confusion

And I'm having these strange illusions

Since you've been gone I've been cryin' cryin' cryin' cryin'

Without a word without a warning

You left my life on early morning

Did I lean on you a little too strong

Too much of you I depended on

All at once I'm alone

I'm in a helpless situation

And I need some consolation

'Cause my mind is in a confusion

And I'm having these strange illusions

Since you've been gone I've been cryin' cryin' cryin' cryin'

In the shelter of your love my strength I found

But now I'm useless, darlin', since you're not around

I'm helpless baby

"Need some consolation, I need it, need it"...

Baby baby I'm helpless since I lost your love

Helpless 'cause now I need your love

I need your words of confidence (need it, need it)

I need those happy times we spent

Since you've been gone

I'm in a helpless situation

And I need some consolation

'Cause my mind is in a confusion

And I'm having these strange illusions

All at once it hit me, I'm alone I'm alone

Oh helpless

Since I lost your love

Helpless

'Cause now I need your love

I never needed no one before

But now I need you more and more

I'm helpless 'til you come back to me

Helpless...
