Wednesday Words


Helpless
Neil Young

There is a town in north Ontario,
With dream comfort memory to spare,
And in my mind
I still need a place to go,
All my changes were there.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us

Helpless, helpless, helpless
Baby can you hear me now?
The chains are locked
and tied across the door,
Baby, sing with me somehow.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us

Helpless, helpless, helpless.

Another one my favourites from the The Last Waltz - Neil Young (completely stoned & spooky) playing with The Band. There are so many towns in Ontario that bring me dream comfort memories, where my own changes took place... Smiths Falls, Trenton, Belleville, Chatham, Port Colborne, Barrie, Timmins, Thunder Bay, Sault Ste Marie... Oh happy days!
