| I stood at the door beside her
|
| But she would not let me pass
|
| I was such a boor and I lied to her
|
| I said I did not really want her ass
|
| I went away in the mud and rain
|
| The gang became snide and laughed
|
| I was slayed but I smiled and the pain
|
| Began to subside at last
|
| And when I got back to my hotel
|
| I wondered if the thunder meant I would landed in hell
|
| And on the forecourt I slipped and fell
|
| I cracked my stupid head and I heard a bell
|
| I thought «Hey!»
|
| Somebody saved me, it happened again
|
| Somebody saved me, I thank you my friend
|
| Somebody saved me, from a fate worse than heaven
|
| Cause if I would had her for just an hour
|
| I would have wanted her forever
|
| Somebody saved me
|
| You would have thought that I would have learned
|
| Twenty years ago or more
|
| A beautiful girl raised her mouth and yearned
|
| But I did not know what lips were for
|
| I ran away in the mud and rain
|
| The weather here is never too bright
|
| She would had an affray with her man and came
|
| For solace and the means to fight
|
| She finally bored with seducing me
|
| And took up with some geezer from the Eagling scene
|
| And it nearly killed him like it would have killed me
|
| When her original man snapped his fingers and she obeyed
|
| She obeyed
|
| I do not know about guardian angels
|
| All I know about’s staying alive
|
| I cannot shout about spiritual labels
|
| When little ones die and big ones thrive
|
| All I know is that I have been making it
|
| There have been times I did not deserve to
|
| Every show there’s been more faking it
|
| But right at the point of no return
|
| Somebody saves me, and it happened again
|
| Somebody saves me, and I thank you my friend
|
| Somebody saves me, from a fate worse than heaven
|
| Cause if I blew it for a single moment
|
| I would blow it forever
|
| But somebody saves me
|
| I took up the connection once
|
| Made me feel quite aloof
|
| I never could queue to collect my lunch
|
| While I was pursuing the truth
|
| I left my folks in the mud and rain
|
| It always rained in Sunnyside Road
|
| I lived hippie jokes getting stoned insane
|
| 'Til the rain looked just like snow
|
| But there was a soul in whom I could depend
|
| He worked himself crazy while I laid in bed
|
| I never leaned on a person like I leaned right then
|
| And when I finally woke up clean
|
| My friend was dead, stone dead
|
| But somebody saved me, it happened again
|
| Somebody saved me, I thank you my friend
|
| Somebody saved me, I am not ready for heaven
|
| Cause if I would seen you for a second, I would have wanted to see you forever
|
| Somebody saved me |
