You're asking me if I can help you
In this world of live and die
But the only thing that I can do
Is try to make you laugh or cry

Before someone can really help you
You gotta learn to help yourself
But don't get hung up with this message
I'm just concerned about your health

Cause I've been to the end
And I've come back again
And I know not how or why
But I do know that love is free for the asking
And love O sweet love is all you can try

I asked a man for some directions
In the early morning frost
"I'm a stranger in this town" he said
"To tell ya the truth we're both quite lost"
The temperature was slowly dropping
From our heads down to our toes
And the only thing that I could see
Was the icicles around my nose

Cause I've been to the end
And I've come back again
And I know that love is free for the asking
And love O sweet love is all you can try
