Helix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say you got troubles babe
Weighing heavy on your mind
Well don't you worry no
Gonna leave 'em all far behind

In the morning light
When you're lying by my side
I'm gonna wipe away, wipe away
The tears you cry, you cry, you cry

Ooh yeah!

If you need lovin' babe
Well I'm your man
Gonna do the best for you
The best I can

In the morning light
When you're lying by my side
I'm gonna wipe away, wipe away
All those tears you cry

I'll always be there
When you need me
And this ol' world drags you down

And in the morning
When love comes shining through
I'll be your shelter from the storm

If you need someone babe
Someone to share
All those dreams you made
I'm the one who cares

And when you're feeling down
Or when you're feeling blue
I'm gonna wipe away, wipe away
All those tears for you

I'll always be there
When you need me
And this ol' world drags you down

And in the morning
When love comes shining through
I'll be your shelter from the storm

Ow!

And in the morning
When love comes shining through
I'll be your shelter from the storm

I'll keep you warm
I'm gonna wipe away, wipe away
All your tears
For you
Every tear
For you

I'll be your shelter
Your shelter from the storm
The storm
The storm

All those tears




All those tears
You cried

Overall Meaning

The Storm by Helix is a classic rock love song that tells a story of a partner who deeply cares for his or her significant other. The first stanza leads with the significant other expressing that they are troubled and weighed down with problems. The lead singer reassures the partner that he or she doesn't need to worry and that the singer will "leave them all far behind." Furthermore, the singer pledges to wipe away his or her lover's tears in the morning when lying beside them.


The second stanza starts with the singer inquiring if their lover needs love and he reassures them that he is the ideal man for the role. He then goes on to promise to wipe away all their tears, always be there for them, and be their shelter from the storm when love comes shining through. The last segment of the song reiterates the vow to be there for, to take care of and to support a partner in times of need. The rock guitar, the awesome beat, and perfect harmonies complete this ode to true love that will withstand any storm.

In my opinion one of their best songs and definitely their best video

Jasong9573

I agree. This song is bad ass.

Jason Kennedy

Yep. This and running wild in the twenty first century are amazing songs.

Ray Cuda

It’s up there ✌🏻

Jeff Beights

Yes to what everyone else said. I just want to say the tone of the Strat here is very straight into the amp, honest and real. One of their best songs. I have listened to Helix since "Running wild in the 21st Century" premiered on MTV's Headbanger's Ball.
👍
