Taking in consideration honey all that we've been through
|
A thousand gossip touted tongues can't stop my loving you
|
You broke the chains of misery that had me tightly bound
|
Yes you helped me up when the world let me down
|
You helped me up and stood by me everyway our luck was down
|
My party friends from the party days no longer were around
|
You saw in me a quality that no one else has found
|
Yes you helped me up when the world let me down
|

|
You helped me up and stood by me everyway our luck was down
|
Through your eyes you saw a king and the world saw only a clown (yes they did)
|
My problems all were solved the day your sweet love Jerry found
|
Yes you helped me up when the world let me down
|
You helped me up when the world let me down (that's right baby)
