A Little Help by Tom Schena COPYRIGHT 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TOM SCHENA MUSIC, LLC Verse 1 I’ve always been a simpleminded melody So run of the mill, that I nearly lost my mind So caught up with what you might just think of me That I found myself a future running blind Chorus A But you gotta have love You gotta have understanding You gotta believe, oh, in yourself You gotta rise above All of you that you have left abandoned And never try to be too proud That you will never be allowed A little help My brothers A little help my sisters A little help my friends You see help is the one thing That we all can do To make this one world A little better for me and you Verse 2 I have learned my lessons, and I have seen the cost Of beauty in this world that can never be lost And I know my tomorrows they depend on me today Just like the bluebird depends on the wind to fly away Bridge/Verse3 I’ll just pray I’ll remember, what I need to say When my eyes seem sullen, and my hair turns a shade of gray I just hope I can keep my strength before the light of day takes me away So far away I pray And I, Lord, I pray Chorus B I’ll pray you’ll find love I’ll pray you’ll find understanding Pray you’ll believe in yourself That you will find a way to rise above All that you have left abandoned And never try to be too proud That you will never be allowed That you will never be allowed A little help My brothers A little help my sisters A little help my friends See help is the one thing That we all can do To make this one world A little better for me and you

about

Tom is from a small town in New Hampshire, where a freshman at his old high school (who had just started) had been in the hospital for months, diagnosed with brain tumors and was beginning chemo; her mom left her job to be by her side every day.
While singing this song at a house concert, Mr. Drew suggested Tom sing this song at a local fundraiser featuring a local band, during their intermission. Wicked Cool Music decided to kick it up a notch and work out a win-win scenario in which they could finish this one song in the studio and generate enough buzz to promote a 3D (digital download donation) sensation.
All proceeds will be used to pay for the family’s travel and living expenses; Tom Schena Music will collect these donations until April 30, 2012 or $100,000 (you never know!) or more according to Tom’s wishes.
