Help Me Forget

Gary Louris

[Verse 1]
I read the morning paper
[?] desolation, pages full of hate, and I find
Find my fingers shaking
Centuries of enemies, tangled claims from different sides
We ain't getting any younger
Let's not waste more time

[Chorus]
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile

[Verse 2]
There's an endless chain
Of senseless retribution, long for days of innocence
Seas from days forgotten
Drown the voice of reason, shouts of blind intolerance
We ain't getting any younger
Let's not waste more time

[Chorus]
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
There's no use in hiding
What can not [?] sympathy
But for one brief moment
Help me to remember the simple cares of yesterday
We ain't getting any younger
Let's not waste more time

[Chorus]
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile
Help me forget this world for awhile
