Steel Train - Helicopter Lyrics

[Originally by M. Ward]

i am somewhere in the city climbin' up a fire escape
see i am somewhere in the city climbin' up a fire escape
you know i got to save my baby from the mess that this world has made

oh i arrive through a window
leave through a hole in the wall
see i arrive through a window
leave through a hole in the wall
you know i got to save my baby as i carry her cradle and all

helicopter, helicopter
let your long rope down
you see i swing beneath the sunset
done all that i can do in your town

violence has taken wind out of my sails
violence has taken wind out of my sails
you know i got to save my baby from the mess that this world has made

helicopter, helicopter
let your long rope down
you see i swing beneath the sunset
done all that i can do in your town

i am somewhere in the city climbin' up a fire escape
see i am somewhere in the city climbin' up a fire escape
you know i got to save my baby from the mess that this world has made
