Janis Ian Can You Reach Me Lyrics

Can you reach me?
Would you teach me to be free?
Is it such an easy thing,
To be a friend?
Can you reach me?
Would you teach me to be free?
Have you got a helping hand to lend?

It's okay, I know you're trying to wait,
Hoping time will hesitate,
As you sit down on the phone.
Oh, but it's too late,
And your hands begin to shake,
You try to make it and break it all alone.
And I know I can please you,
I'll only try to reach out to you.

Can you reach me?
Would you teach me to be free?
Is it such an easy thing,
To be a friend?
Oh, can you reach me?
Would you teach me to be free?
Have you got a helping hand to lend?

Because, my friend,
Seems like everything depends,
On my timing of my bending tables, Waiting for a song.
Yes and then,
Seems like everybody depends,
On the lending of a hand.
And I go 'round, 'round 'n' 'round.
I'll be bound.
I got nothin' to give,
But, God, I'm gonna live.
I'm gonna live.
I'm gonna live.

Would you reach me?
Would you teach me to be free?
Is it such an easy thing?
Be my friend,
My friend, oh, be my friend.
Oh, tell me would you reach me?
Tell me, tell me, is it easy
Could you please me?
Could you release me?

Oh, would you reach me?
Tell me, tell me, is it easy?
Would you tease me?
Would you believe in me?

Tell me, could you reach me?
Tell me, tell me, is it easy?
Would you tease me?
Release me.

[CAN YOU REACH ME?]
