I'm not gonna let you down
But I'm not gonna help you up
It takes so long to turn me around
When I think nothin' could be wrong

And then you can't hear me
And I can't hear you
And then you wander downtown
About a quarter to two

With your head held low
And not a thing to do
You gotta give me some time
With those one's and two's

Oh, oh

You're like a puzzle that can't be solved
Missing pieces never fill the gaps
You got the salt and I got the wound
But all you gotta do is ask

And there's a glint in your eye
And you curl your lip
Now when you go to shut the door
And I can't see shit

And when you start I can't stop
Nothin' for me to grip
And when I try to get away
You always give me the slip

Oh, oh

Please ask for
Please ask for
Please ask for help. (4x)
