I cry a lot more than ever. Today's one of those days. I'm forcing my neighbors to hear him now.

My wife has been under the weather and her friend brought us lunch today. I had been listening to Jimmy and crying when she came, so I had to explain it was Jimmy I was sad about. But the wife chipped in that I was sad about having to care for her.

This girl I know needs some shelter
She don't believe anyone can help her
She's doing so much harm, doing so much damage
But you don't wanna get involved
You tell her she can manage

And you can't change the way she feels
But you could put your arms around her
I know you wanna live yourself
But could you forgive yourself
If you left her just the way you found her?

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection

Sometimes you look so small, you need some shelter
You're just runnin' 'round and 'round, helter-skelter
And I've leaned on you for years, now you can lean on me
And that's more than love, that's the way it should be... :
