The (Elvis) Letter

One more phone call from a friend

Just to say how hard it's been

How their hopes and dreams have scattered

With the wind

They don't see that I'm there too

How it breaks my heart in two

Just to make it through this night's all I can do

Help me Lord

I need the sun to drive away

The shadows in my mind

Help me Lord

I need someone to guide me

When the path is hard to find

Even though the crowd surrounds me

I'm still standing all alone

When I know I can't go on

Help me Lord

As I awake again today

And my pain won't go away

And the face I have to wear

Shows a smile

Now my nights are so alone

I just wish I could go home

I don't know if I can make it another mile

Help me Lord

I need the sun to drive away

The shadows in my mind

Please help me Lord

I need someone to guide me

When the path is hard to find

Even though the crowd surrounds me

I'm still standing all alone

When I know I can't go on

Help me Lord

I feel so alone sometimes

The night is quiet for me

I'd love to be able to sleep

I am glad that everyone is gone now

I'll probably not rest tonight

I have no need for all of this

Help me Lord

Help me Lord

I need the sun to drive away

The shadows in my mind

Please help me Lord

I need someone to guide me

When the path is hard to find

Even though the crowd surrounds me

God I am so all alone

When I know I can't go on

Help me Lord

Won't you come and take me home

Help me Lord
