Reaching Out (For A Helping Hand)

Reaching out, reaching out
For a helping hand
Standing tall, alone just like an island
'Cos I had nobody to trust or to rely on
Now I can't make it over to the other side
And all that's left is my foolish pride
Reaching out, reaching out
For a helping hand
Try to make you understand
I wanna be a better, loving, stronger man
Knew all the answers but I never knew the questions
Shoot the messenger, never learn the lessons
To lonely days and trying nights I had become resigned
All I needed was just one good friend, to help me change my mind
Reaching out, reaching out
For a helping hand
Try to make you understand
I wanna be a better, loving, stronger man
I see the signs in you, they shine so painfully
You're hiding in the shadows of aching memories
In isolation it's so hard to stay strong
Let me hold you in these arms of mine, I wanna keep you warm
So I'm reaching out, reaching out
For a helping hand
Try to make you understand
I wanna be a better, loving, stronger man
And I won't stop until I show you that I can
Reaching
Reaching out for a helping hand
