The clothes all around her fell to the floor
Said she's leaving tomorrow, she closed the door
Said her daddy got transfered 
She was crying softly, she called my name

Passion exploding like a fire in my veins
Innocent victims of this 

So helpless (helpless)
They're taking my girl away
I feel so helpless (helpless)
I swear we'll be back together someday

She said she believed me but her eyes never lied
Pushed back her hair, I was inside
She reached out to touch me but then I went through
She asked what was wrong but we both knew

American dreams cut like knives in the air
Promises fading like a nightmare

So helpless (helpless)
They're taking my girl away
I feel so helpless (helpless)
The fire still burns in my veins
But I feel so helpess (helpless)
I swear we'll be back together someday

So helpless (helpless)
They're taking my girl away
I feel so helpless (helpless)
I'm gonna get her back someday
But I feel so helpess (helpless)
I gotta fight this feeling
So helpless (helpless)
I gotta keep believing

(Helpless) Don't take my girl away
(Helpless)
