Helping You
I want to help you, I really do
But what does my help mean for you?
Sympathy is not the way to go
Feeling sorry for you, is just a show
That takes away your choice for you,
I want to help you, I really do
Let me walk at your side as you lead the way
Let me hear what you have to say
Let me be your sounding board
Reflecting thoughts, feelings that you hoard
I want to help you, I really do
But to yourself you must be true
Let me be a mirror clear,
Not a voice whispering in your ear.
Let my actions empower you, for you
I want to help… you… I really do
