Save Me Lyrics by Peter Cetera

One More Story

0

[Verse 1]
Man all alone, caught in a raging water
A man overboard, caught in a terrible storm
Throw me the rope, pull me out of trouble
I need someone, someone to keep me warm

[Chorus 1]
Why don't you save me?
I'm burning with desire
Why won't you save me?
Don't leave me all alone
And it's all right (You know)
Wrap me up, baby won't you take me home?

[Verse 2]
Forty below, high up a lonely mountain
Slipping down, baby I'm sinking fast
Throw me the rope, pull me out of this trouble
S.O.S., I don't think I'm gonna last

[Chorus 2]
Why don't you save me? (Oh)
I'm burning with desire
Why won't you save me? (Ooh)
Come on and hold me tight
And it's all right (It's all right)
I told you love
We're gonna have a talk tonight (Uh huh, yeah)
Why don't you save me? (Oh)
I'm burning with desire
Why won't you save me? (Ooh)
Come on hold me tight
And it's all right (And it's all right)
Don't you want to?
You're messing with a man tonight

[Instrumental Break]
Yeah, come on

[Chorus 2]
Why don't you save me? (Oh)
I'm burning with desire
Why won't you save me? (Oh no, no, no, no)
Come on and hold me tight
And it's all right (I told you girl)
I told you love
We're gonna have a talk tonight (Uh huh, yeah)
Why don't you save me? (Oh)
I'm burning with desire
Why won't you save me? (In the end)
Come on hold me tight
And it's all right (Be with me again)
Don't you want to?
You're messing with a man tonight
