Crash movie - Save Me lyrics

rate me

Song by Bird York<br /><br>

In the afternoon <br>

she sits and waits for him to come <br>

two swollen ankles count the time <br>

Nervous fingers trace <br>

across the cold linoleum <br>

the kitchen wall receives her sigh <br>

"Oh, can you hear me, Joe?" <br>

she tries to call across the veil <br>

Her lips are trembling now <br>

can't hear his voice , can't feel him near <br>

she says "Save me, save me <br>

why don't you save me from the pain of losing you <br>

Save me, save me <br>

why don't you save me from this hell I'm going through" <br>

The dinner table looks so strange without him sitting there <br>

the bed is empty on his side <br>

for forty years this house has held the fire of love they shared <br>

but now the garden slowly dies <br>

He said he'd never leave her alone to face the day <br>

What kind of God is this that'll take him back <br>

and make her stay <br>

"Save me, save me <br>

why don't you save me from the pain of losing you <br>

save me, save me <br>

why don't you save me from this hell I'm going through? <br>

The kids try to come around, <br>

try to make some time to see me, <br>

I know, the busy lives they lead <br>

keep them from these memories" <br>
