Helicopter - Lyrics - 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 a 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 And 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 Tell 'em violence has taken the wind out of my sail Tell 'em violence has taken the wind out of my sail Helicopter has taken to breaking this dreaming spell 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 finds 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
