Somebody Saved Me

[Verse 1] 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!" [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] 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[x3]
