Bonnie Raitt › Lyrics › I Can't Help You Now

Where were you when I was fallin' down
Buzzin' 'round your heart?
Why'd you wait till I was moving on
To come out of the dark?

To say I'm what you need
And you could spend your life with me

Well, I can't help you now
(Sorry baby)
No, I can't help you now
(Keep away, I've fallen in love)
Maybe there was a time
But sometimes time runs out
And I can't help you now

It's been forty days since I stopped countin' the days
Countin' the ways that I love you
Good long while since I found
Good enough reasons to stop believin'

That you are what I really want
And now that you do baby, I don't

But I can't help you now
(Sorry baby, no)
I can't help you now
(Keep away, I've fallen in love)
Maybe there was a time
But sometimes time runs out
And I can't help you now, hey hey

Now you say, I'm the one you need
And you could spend your life with me

But I can't help you, no, I can't help you now
(Sorry baby, no I can't help)
I can't help you now
(Keep away, I've fallen in love)
Baby there was a time and I wish I could somehow
But I can't help you, can't help you now
