But what Can I Do... To Help You?

Every now and then...
Every then and now...
When I dream of you
The dream seems so real... somehow
It all seems so true...
There we are... standing on the edge
The great precipice of life...
Before our eyes
I'm pleading with you to stop... and turn around your life...
But you edge closer and closer to the drop
Even with my every plea for you to stop...
You seem determined to throw your life away
When you're mere inches from taking the step...
You turn and smile at me
Speaking with those beautiful eyes... you say...
"Everything's gonna be okay...
You will see...
'Cause right now... it's hell to be me!"
And there I stand... looking on... so helplessly...
Watching you edge closer and closer to eternity
Knowing full well... I will never see you again... my friend...
But what can I do... to help you?
Every now and then...
Every then and now...
When I think of you
I start to cry... somehow...
Just a tear or two
Then I get to feeling so lonely... so blue
'Cause I feel as though I'm standing here...
Just like in the dream
I'm looking on... so helplessly
Not knowing... if or when...I'll ever see you again... my friend...
But what can I do... to help you?
"Nothing really..." would be your reply...
"I've got to pick and chose my own life"
In my heart... I know... this is true...
Growing up has not been easy for you
You're expected to be an adult...
And you're not...
But you're not still a child...
You're just stuck somewhere in between
Living life in the wilds
To this... I can totally relate...
You have a different mind state
These are different times... in which we live...
Then... when I was a kid
But what can I do... to help you?
To help you choose a path less traveled
Instead of the path... where life starts a downward spiral
'Cause you mean the world to me
You're in my heart...
Where you'll always be
If I should die today... tonight or tomorrow...
At least... I know in my heart... that I have tried...
To help you...
Though I don't know
Hopefully... I have planted a seed... that in time may grow
It's up to you... the ball's in your court
I'm here... babe... if you ever need support...
And do whatever I can for you...

Just continue to pray and be there as a strong back if she needs it. That is all you can do. You will succeed I feel sure.
Hugs,
