Rescue Me

(Just tell me what you want from me)

R-e-s-c-u-e me
Only you can rescue me
R-e-s-c-u-e me
Only you can rescue me
Rescue me
You and me – it’s hard to believe
Your love has given me hope
Rescue me
You and me – it’s hard to believe
I’m drowning. Baby, throw out your rope

With you I’m not a little boy
With you I’m not a man
When all the hurt inside of me comes out, you understand
You see that I’m ferocious
You see that I am weak
You see that I am silly, and pretentious, and a freak
But I don’t feel too strange for you
Don’t know exactly what you do
I think when love is pure, you try to understand the reasons why
And I prefer this mystery. It cancels out my misery
And gives me hope that there can be a person that loves me

R-e-s-c-u-e me
Only you can rescue me
R-e-s-c-u-e me
Only you can rescue me
Rescue me
You and me – it’s hard to believe
Your love has given me hope
Rescue me
You and me – it’s hard to believe
I’m drowning. Baby, throw out your rope

With you, I’m not a facist. Can’t play you like a toy
And when I need to dominate, you’re not my little boy
You see that I am hungry for a life of understanding
And you forgive my angry little heart when he’s demanding
You bring me to my knees, while I’m scratching out the eyes
Of a world I want to conquer, and deliver, ande despise
And right while I am kneeling there, I suddenly begin to care
And understand that there can be a person that loves me

R-e-s-c-u-e me
Only you can rescue me
R-e-s-c-u-e me
Only you can rescue me
Rescue me
You and me – it’s hard to believe
Your love has given me hope
Rescue me
You and me – it’s hard to believe
I’m drowning. Baby, throw out your rope
