“Help me, Lisa”


Lisa ?????, I need you to help me in this life.
I know quite for sure that you’ll never be my wife.
I would like to be with you, but will you agree?
I know that I have made you pretty mad at me.

There is nothing wrong with me.  I am a nice guy.
I am trustable and I never tell a lie.
Then why do you ignore me?  I want to know why.
Don’t be shy, just come up and give me a reply.

I want to get to know you; learn about your past.
If we do go out, how long will you and I last?
The love in my heart is here to stay forever.
I would never want to break up with you ever.

I can’t come and talk to you.  I think you hate me.
You must tell me it’s okay.  You must talk to me.
In this life, I need your help.  That is all I need.
If you come and help me, I’ll be happy indeed.

I’ll give everything I have just to be with you.
To get your love, there is nothing that I won’t do.
I will try everything until you are with me.
But I am helpless until you come and help me.

Please, Lisa.  Help me and talk to me more often.
Call me on the phone.  Spend time with me more often.
I know that I’m not popular and I’m ugly.
But I have feelings, and there’s lots of love in me.

When I see you in the hall, you look at me bad.
Look at me with a smile.  That would make me feel glad.
But if you truly hate me, just come and tell me.
But if you would like to help, please come and help me.

Anything you want from me, you can have for free.
I will give anything to you that you can see.
You don’t have to give me a thing, just be with me.
The only thing that I need is you to love me.

Don’t listen to anybody. It is your choice.
Listen to the words I speak.  Listen to my voice.
I will not boss you around.  You can take control.
You can have all of the love that is in my soul.

I need to be with you everyday in this world.
I will never leave you on your own in this world.
I’d help if I knew what your problems are about.
If you want me to help you, I will help you out.

I’m someone to depend on.  I’m the one who cares.
I’m the one who always gives.  I’m the one who shares.
You’re the lucky one who has someone helping you.
I’ll do everything because I truly love you.

If I ever ask you out, don’t say “No” right then.
Try to talk and explain the answer to me then.
I just wish that I had a chance to be with you.
I don’t care if you hate me.  I’ll always love you.
