Lyrics
I’ll be your light
When you can’t see
Guide you with love and loyalty
I’ll live my life to serve your needs
And all that I ask is that you please
Save me
From this cruel senseless sin
I was born to be your friend
Save me
‘Cause I can’t save myself without your help
Save me
Look in my eyes
And hear my plea
Let me keep you
Come for me
Let human kindness lead the way
And just let me live another day
Save me
Don’t let this be my end
I was born to be your friend
Save me
‘Cause I can’t save myself without your help
Save me
Save me
Don’t let this be my end
I was born to be your friend
Save me
‘Cause I can’t save myself without your help
Save me
Oh…
(Richard Marx/Linda Thompson)
