As you passed by me nodding in friendship
You’ve no idea of what it means, or how it hurts, how bad it feels
When the fire in your eyes seemed so splendid
My mind was full of crazy sights, I overcame my fear of heights
As you glanced at yourself in the mirror
You saw me there, tempting fate
A lucky man
Now you go through the motions of coolness
Remember that I did my best, I gave up all at your behest
If the words that we speak all seem foolish
Well, words alone don’t pacify, so don’t ask me for no alibi!
As you weigh up what action to take
Take my advice, compromise
And minimize the pain
Gimme some help, to end these lonely nights
Gimme some help, to crystallize for mind
Gimme some help, before love turns to hate
The piper at the gate is spelling out our fate
He’s spelling out our fate
As you floated away in your own way
I had to gasp, you moved so fast, nothing we built was made to last
When the smile on your lips seemed so jaded
By that time I’d realized, the whole affair was jeopardized
As you weigh up what action to take
Take my advice, compromise
And minimize the pain
Gimme some help, to end these lonely nights
Gimme some help, to crystallize for mind
Gimme some help, before love turns to hate
The piper at the gate is spelling out our fate
He’s spelling out our fate
Gimme some help
Gimme some help
Gimme some help
Gimme some help
Gimme some help, to end these lonely nights
Gimme some help, to crystallize for mind
Gimme some help, before love turns to hate
The piper at the gate is spelling out our fate
He’s spelling out our fate
Gimme some help, to end these lonely nights
Gimme some help, to crystallize for mind
Gimme some help, before love turns to hate
The piper at the gate is spelling out our fate
He’s spelling out our fate
Gimme some help, to end these lonely nights
Gimme some help, to crystallize for mind
Gimme some help, before love turns to hate
The piper at the gate is spelling out our fate
He’s spelling out our fate
