John Lefler helplessly

I know where you are
I know where you stand
I know what you're going to say.
Your fortunes been told
Your lines have been read
And you're here to turn me away.
A fools paradise with promises never received
You smile nervously as you look for forgiveness.
You look for the door. A face so familiar but have you been here before.
Heartlessly searching, for a hard guarantee.
But you lied when you said you fell into his arms, helplessly.
I know you've had fear, I know you've had doubts.
Well I've got a few of my own.
Because the life that you love, and can't live without, won't keep you from feeling alone.
Relax. Settle down. Don't shake up your family tree, to lie here with me
Now you look for forgiveness. You look for the door. A face so familiar, but have you been here before. Heartlessly searching for a hard guarantee. But you lied when you said you fell into his arms helplessly.
So helplessly.
A fools paradise but promises never received.
Too hard to break down on your own. You'll never stray too far from home.
Now you look for forgiveness. You look for the door. A face so familiar, but have you been here before. Heartlessly searching for a hard guarantee. But you lied when you said you fell into his arms helplessly.
