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)
