M. Ward - Helicopter Lyrics

Artist: M. Ward

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Matthew Stephen Ward

I am somewhere in this city
I am climbing up a fire escape
I am somewhere in this 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 hole in the wall
I arrive through a window
I leave through a hole 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 sail
Tom, violence has taken
The wind out of my sail
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

Helicopter, helicopter let your long rope down
Let us sway into the sunset
I have done all I can do in this town
