Save Me - Joan Armatrading

Sinking

Caught up in a whirling motion

Such a strange sensation

The currents uncertain

Like sails of a mill

I spin

Like wheels I move in a circle

While you stand on the bank

Immune or evasive

Throw me a lifeline

Save me...

Intimacy and affection

Frozen

In this game of chance

I forfeit

Full hand of love

With no counters

Like a moth

With no flame

To persuade me

Like blood in the rain

Running thin

While you stand on the inside

Looking in

Save me...

Inside looking in

Complete in yourself

Throw me a lifeline

Save me...

Stand on the bank

Immune or evasive

Throw me a lifeline

Save me...
