[00:00.25] Ohh, I do I do I do I Dooo! Hey!
[00:05.48] Ohh, I do I do I do I Dooo! Boy, you got me
[00:11.99] Helpless!
[00:14.24] Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm
[00:17.74] Helpless!
[00:20.00] Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em.
[00:23.75] I have never been the type to try and grab the spotlight.
[00:27.09] We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
[00:30.15] Laughin' at my sister as she's dazzling the room
[00:32.83] Then you walked in and my heart went
[00:34.85] "Boom!"
[00:36.11] Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
[00:39.08] Everybody's dancin' and the band's top volume.
[00:42.14] Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine.
[00:44.62] Grab my sister, and whisper
[00:46.60] "Yo, this one's mine." (Oooh)
[00:49.60] My sister made her way across the room to you (Oooh)
[00:52.86] And I got nervous, thinking
[00:53.91] "What's she gonna do?" (Oooh)
[00:55.65] She grabs you by the arm, I'm thinkin'
[00:57.15] "I'm through" (Oooh)
[00:59.17] Then you look back at me and suddenly I'm
[01:00.67] Helpless!
[01:01.91] Look into your eyes, (Oh, look at those eyes, )
[01:04.70] And the sky's the limit (Oh!)
[01:06.44] I'm helpless, (I know)
[01:09.46] Down for the count
[01:10.69] And I'm drownin' in 'em.
[01:12.69] I'm helpless! (I'm so into you, )
[01:15.25] Look into your eyes, (I am so.)
[01:16.70] And the sky's the limit (into you.)
[01:18.20] I'm helpless! (I know, )
[01:20.95] I'm down for the count
[01:22.68] And I'm drownin'in 'em.
[01:25.25] Where are you taking me?
[01:26.46] I'm about to change your life.
[01:28.44] Then by all means, lead the way.
[01:30.21] Elizabeth Schuyler. It's a pleasure to meet you.
[01:33.19] Schuyler?
[01:33.99] My sister.
[01:34.94] Thank you for all your service
[01:36.97] If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will
[01:38.76] Have been worth it.
[01:40.24] I'll leave you to it.
[01:42.47] One week later
[01:44.23] I'm writin' a letter nightly.
[01:46.08] Now my life gets better
[01:47.59] Every letter that you write me.
[01:49.07] Laughin' at my sister, cuz she wants to form a harem.
[01:51.85] I'm just sayin', if you really loved me
[01:53.65] You would share him.
[01:54.90] Ha! Two weeks later
[01:56.20] In the living room stressin'
[01:57.95] My father's stonefaced
[01:59.45] While you're asking for his blessin'.
[02:00.70] I'm dying inside, as you wine and dine
[02:03.75] And I'm tryin' not to cry, 'cause
[02:05.55] There's nothing that your mind can't do. (Oooh)
[02:08.57] My father makes his way across the room to you. (Oooh)
[02:11.55] I panic for a second, thinking
[02:12.80] "We're through" (Oooh)
[02:14.30] But then he shakes your hand and says
[02:15.85] "Be true" (Oooh)
[02:17.30] And you turn back to me, smiling, and I'm
[02:19.55] Helpless!
[02:22.06] Look into your eyes
[02:23.57] And the sky's the limit I'm
[02:25.31] Helpless!

[02:37.63] Helpless! Helpless!
[02:40.39] Down for the count, and I'm drownin'in 'em
[02:43.89] Eliza, I don't have a dollar to my name
[02:46.38] An acre of land, a troop to command
[02:48.87] A dollop of fame.
[02:50.13] All I have's my honor, a tolerance for pain
[02:52.87] A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain.
[02:55.38] Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
[02:58.87] Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me
[03:01.62] No stress, my love for you is never in doubt.
[03:04.13] We'll get a little place in Harlem and we'll figure it out.
[03:07.37] I've been livin' without a family since I was a child.
[03:10.37] My father left, my mother died, I grew up buckwild.
[03:13.62] But I'll never forget my mother's face, that was real
[03:16.64] And long as I'm alive, Eliza, swear to God, you'll never feel so
[03:20.14] (Helpless!) I do I do I do I do!
[03:22.63] Eliza... (Helpless!)
[03:23.89] I do I do I do I do!
[03:25.63] I've never felt so-
[03:26.62] Helpless! (Hey! Yeah, yeah!)
[03:28.86] Down for the count and
[03:30.36] I'm drownin' in 'em (Down for the count I'm)
[03:32.15] My life is gon' be fine cuz Eliza's in it.
[03:35.12] I look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit I'm (Helpless!)
[03:41.68] Down for the count
[03:42.42] And I'm drownin' in 'em.
[03:51.70] In New York, you can be a new man.
[03:53.45] In New York, you can be a new man.
[03:56.46] In New York, you can be a new man.
[04:02.96] Helpless!
