• If I told you I love whiskey girls, you'd drink your life away/
    If I said my love came with a price, you'd find the means to pay/
    If I told you you you should follow me, you'd leave your home today/
    but I can't save you....
    Save me the tears of a childhood gone wrong/
    You know that I don't want to write a love song/
    I guess it turns out we were ******** all along/
    and I can't save you....

    (chorus):
    You don't know how lucky you are/
    You're wishing again on a shooting star/
    I can't save that smile/ I can't capture the joy/
    I can give you my word that I am by far/
    not the only one.../ I am not a god...

    Hurricane maddness distorts all our views/
    We reach out our tongues for a taste of good news/
    We wonder how long we can take the abuse/
    cuz I can't save you...
    Kiss me goodnight like I kissed her goodbye/
    I do or do not, cuz I know there's no "try"/
    The doubt and the fear are erased from your eyes/
    but I can't save you...

    (chorus)

    (Bridge):
    I cant save you myself when I need my own savior/
    Though I can admit, we look good on paper/
    I cant save you/ I cant save you
    I dont know the difference of the moon to the sun/
    We've laid down our cards and we've had all our fun
    I can't save you/ I can't save you

    I'm drunk so I stutter when I sing your praise/
    We're locked in our minds so we count down the days/
    I've failed you again in so many ways/
    and you just saved me
    Dumbfounded and dying, I beg at your feet/
    You feed me my share of our sordid deafeat/
    It tastes like the explosion of when our lips meet/
    and you just saved me

    (chorus)

    You dont know how lucky you are/
    You're wishin again on a shootin star/
    with a grin on your face/ You trace galaxies/
    and I have realized that you are by far/
    the only one.../ We have just begun...
