Somewhere along the way I found the meaning Woke up dreaming along the way Never quite seems the same when you awaken And makin' up for the time is such a price to pay Then they take your dream away and it just ain't fair
Help me thru the night, mama Help me ease the pain And tell me it's alright Help me thru the night once again
That's the danger in pretending Trying to defend yourself from someone else's war Don't know what they're fighting for And they just don't care
So help me to see the light, mama Open my eyes again And tell me it's alright Help me thru the night once again
