Lyrics
0:00Ohh I do I do I do I
0:03Hey hey hey hey
0:03Dooo Hey
0:06Hey hey hey hey
0:06Ohh I do I do I do I
0:09Hey hey hey hey
0:09Dooo Boy you got me
0:12Hey hey hey hey
0:13Helpless
0:15Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit I'm helpless
0:21Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
0:24I have never been the type to try and grab the spotlight
0:27We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
0:30Laughin' at my sister as she's dazzling the room
0:33Then you walked in and my heart went "Boom"
0:36Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
0:39Everybody's dancin' and the band's top volume
0:42Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
0:45Grab my sister and whisper "Yo this one's mine"
0:48Ooh
0:49My sister made her way across the room to you
0:51Ooh
0:52And I got nervous thinking "What's she gonna do"
0:54Ooh
0:55She grabbed you by the arm I'm thinkin' "I'm through"
0:58Ooh
0:58Then you look back at me and suddenly I'm
1:01Helpless
1:02Oh look at those eyes
1:03Look into your eyes
1:05And the sky's the limit
1:06Oh
1:06I'm helpless
1:07Yeah I'm helpless I know
1:09Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
1:12I'm helpless
1:14I'm so into you
1:16Look into your eyes
1:16I am so into you
1:18And the sky's the limit I'm helpless
1:21I know I'm down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
1:23Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
1:25Where are you taking me
1:27I'm about to change your life
1:28Then by all means lead the way
1:30Elizabeth Schuyler it's a pleasure to meet you
1:33Schuyler
1:34My sister
1:35Thank you for all your service
1:36If it takes fighting a war for us to meet
1:38It will have been worth it
1:40I'll leave you to it
1:43One week later
1:44I'm writin' a letter nightly
1:46Now my life gets better every letter that you write me
1:49Laughin' at my sister cuz she wants to form a harem
1:52I'm just sayin' if you really loved me you would share him
1:55Ha
1:55Two weeks later in the living room stressin'
1:58stressin'
1:58My father's stone-faced while you're asking for his blessin'
2:01blessin'
2:01I'm dying inside as you wine and dine
2:04And I'm tryin' not to cry 'cause there's nothing that your mind can't do
2:07Ooh
2:08My father makes his way across the room to you
2:10Ooh
2:11I panic for a second thinking "we're through"
2:13Ooh
2:14But then he shakes your hand and says "Be true"
2:17Ooh
2:17And you turn back to me smiling and I'm
2:19Helpless
2:21Helpless
2:22Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
2:25I'm helpless
