Rescue

Sometimes I wonder if you walk dark paths alone
Hiding from your dragons, are you looking for a home
And if you called to me for help
I would rescue you
That’s what I’m here to do
To rescue you

Sometimes I wonder if the path you walk is bright
Lit by the love of one who’s with you day and night
Someone who’s there before you call
No need to rescue you
What am I here to do
If not rescue you?

Sometimes in my dreams you break the silence kept so long
And set me thinking that I still could be your choice
You’re close enough to touch but, when I listen, something’s wrong
That cry for help is just the sound, just the sound of my own voice

Sometimes I wonder if our paths will ever cross
Will we be lovers or will I just mourn your loss?
And was I wrong to sit and wait
Till I could rescue you
It’s not for me to do
To rescue you

Rescue you
It’s not for me to do
But I always wanted to
Rescue you
