(K. Hoffmann)
When I've lost my way
and I can't turn back
When my fears are breaking
I'm under attack
When I'm down and I'm aching
Will you come and rescue me?
When my dreams have fallen
and I can't sleep
When the rivers are running
down both my cheeks
When I'm small and I'm shaking
Will you come and rescue me?
Chorus:
Carry me to your safety
I'll die in your caress
Wash my body, lay me down,
and brush my knotted hair
I'll let you
I won't fight back tonight
I won't fight back tonight
I won't fight back tonight
When I've held so long
and I must let go
When I'm driving the wrong way
down a one way road
When I can't find my answers
Will you come and rescue me?
When my touch is cold
and I'm filled with dread
I'm tearing hairs out of my head
When I'm that little girl
crawling into your bed
