Help On The Way

The Grateful Dead

Paradise waits

on the crest of a wave

her angels in flame

She has no pain

Like a child, she is pure

She is not to blame



Poised for flight

Wings spread bright

Spring from night

into the sun

Don't stop to run

She can fly like a lie

She cannot be outdone



Tell me the cost

I can pay

Let me go

Tell me love is not lost

Sell everything

Without love, day to day,

insanity is king



I will pay

day by day

anyway

Lock, bolt and key

Crippled but free

I was blind

all the time

I was learning to see



Help on the way

I know only this

I've got you today

Don't fly away

'cause I love what I love

and I want it that way



I will stay

one more day

Like I say

Honey, it's you

Without love in the dream

It will never come true
