Cliff In Copenhagen , 26 April 1975 <br /><br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's drowning in the stormy sea <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's hanging in a nowhere tree <br />Have you got a place for me <br />Men are tied in chains of silence <br />I look on violence, up, down, left and right <br />Is there no hope of light <br />The peaceful hand that once caressed me <br />Hurts like the rest, because it's turned to stone <br />Talons of steel have grown <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's drowning in the stormy sea <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's hanging in a nowhere tree <br />Have you got a place for me <br />Yeah, oh help me, yeah <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's drowning in the stormy sea <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's hanging in a nowhere tree <br />Have you got a place for me <br />See the moon, it's getting nearer <br />But no more clearer than the earth below <br />What do we really know <br />I feel the stab of pain returning <br />Despair is burning in my heart again <br />Why don't they see the end, ooooh <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's drowning in the stormy sea <br />Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's hanging in a nowhere tree <br />Have you got a place for me <br />Throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's drowning in the stormy sea <br />Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy <br />Who's hanging in a nowhere tree <br />Have you got a place for me <br /><br />Songwriter: Hank Marvin <br />
