Somebody Saved Me
Lyricist:Peter Townshend
I stood at the door beside her But she wouldn't let me pass I was such a bore and I lied to her I said I didn't really want her ass
I went away in the mud and rain The gang became snide and laughed I was slayed but I smiled And the pain began to subside at last
And when I got back to my hotel I wondered if the thunder meant I'd landed in Hell And on the forecourt, slipped and fell I cracked my stupid head and I heard a bell I thought, hey, hey hey
Somebody saved me, it happened again Somebody save me, I thank you my friend Somebody save me from a fate worse than Heaven 'Cos if I had her for just an hour I don't want her forever, somebody saved me
You would have thought that I'd learned Twenty years ago or more A beautiful girl raised her mouth and yearned But I didn't know what lips were for
I ran away in the mud and rain The weather here's never too bright She had an affray with her man and came For solace and the means to fight
She finally bored with seducing me I took up with some geezer from the Ealing scene It nearly killed him like it would've killed me When her original man snapped his fingers And she obeyed, she obeyed
Somebody saved me, it happened again Somebody save me, I thank you my friend Somebody save me from a fate worse than heaven 'Cos if I had her for just an hour I don't want her forever, somebody save me, yeah Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Somebody saved me
I don't know about guardian angels All I know about staying alive I can't shout about spiritual labels When little ones die and big ones thrive
All I know is that I've been making it There've been times I didn't deserve to Every show there's been more faking it But right at the point of no return
Somebody saved me and it happened again Somebody save me and I thank you my friend Somebody save me from a fate worse than heaven 'Cos if I blew it for a single moment I'd blow it forever but somebody saves me
I took up the connection once Made me feel quite aloof I never could queue to collect my lunch While I was pursuing the truth
I left my folks in the mud and rain It always rain in Sunnyside Road I lived hippy joke, get stoned insane Till the rain looked just like snow
But there was a soul in whom I could depend He worked himself crazy while I laid in bed I never leaned on a person like I leaned right then And when I finally woke up clean My friend was dead, stone dead
But somebody saved me, it happened again Somebody save me, I thank you my friend Somebody save me, I ain't ready for Heaven 'Cos If I'd seen you for a second I don't want to see you forever But somebody saved me
Somebody saved me Somebody saved me
