Savin My Life

(john swayne)




I remember back when I was empty
I could not feel, I would not let myself love
I’ll never understand
Why you chose that kind of man
But I’m so glad you gave me a try
Thank you for savin’ my life

One day my dreams may be forgotten
One day my heart may be a memory
Whatever comes and goes
I want you, girl, to know
You’re the reason I’m shining here tonight
Thank you for savin’ my life

It amazes me to think about it, now
That dead-end road that I was stumblin' down
I heard you call me from behind
I wanted so to make you mine
Your love's what made me stop and turn around

I saw an old friend on the corner
His body ravaged from the whiskey and the streets
As I wondered what to do
In my broken heart I knew
There but for the grace of you go I
Thank you for savin’ my life

Thank you for savin’ my life
