HEATHER NOVA LYRICS - Help Me Be Good To You

"Help Me Be Good To You"



"Sometimes you remember the exact moment you wrote a song and this is one of them. I really was sitting in the light of late afternoon at the edge of the water, and the sentiment hit me. It seemed like such a simple line, I couldn't believe someone else hadn't written it already!"



Here in the light of late afternoon

Sun on the water, I'm thinking of you

How we've come too far

To be drifting apart

All this distance we're losing

I know it's my fault



But I think that I love you

I know that I do

I just need you

To help me, help me be good to you

Help me, help me be good to you

Help me, help me be good to you



I don't know why

I can't settle down

Something from my childhood

I still haven't found

And I don't wanna hurt you

With all my longings and my doubts

Just the way I need to feel free

I can see how it brings you down



Well I think that I love you

I know that I do

I just need you

To help me, help me be good to you

Help me, help me be good to you

Help me, please help me dad

Help me be good to you



Help me be good to you

Help me, help me be good to you

Help me, help me, help me, help me

Help me be good to you

Help me be good to you

Help me, help me be good to you

Help me, help me be good to you
