Helicopter - M Ward

I am somewhere in the city

I am climbing up a fire escape

I am somewhere in the city

I am climbing up a fire escape

I have gotta save my baby

from the mess this world has made

I arrive through a window

I leave through a whole in the wall

I arrive through a window

I leave through a whole in the wall

I scramble down the stairwell

with my baby, cradle and all

Helicopter, helicopter let your long rope down

Let us sway into the sunset

I have done all I can do in this town

(Tom?), violence has taken

the wind out of my sails

Tom, violence has taken

the wind out of my sails

Helicopter has taken to

breaking this dream as well

My mind is 'a racing

my heart is prepared somehow

My mind is 'a racing

my heart is prepared somehow

For that searchlight come shining

and find me under a cloud.

Helicopter, helicopter let your long rope down

Let us sway into the sunset,

I have done all I can do in this town.
