Lyrics for With You There to Help Me

For sixty days and eighty nights And not givin' in and lose the fight I'm going back to the ones that I know With whom I can be what I want to be And just one week for the feeling to go And with you there to help me, then it probably will I won't go down Acting the same old play Give sixty days for just one night Don't think I'd make it but then I might I'm going back to the ones that I know With whom I can be what I want to be And just one week for the feeling to go And with you there to help me, then it probably will I'm going back to the ones that I know With whom I can be what I want to be And just one week for the feeling to go And with you there to help me, then it probably will I'm going back to the ones that I know With whom I can be what I want to be And just one week for the feeling to go And with you there to help me, then it probably will
