Good morning Monday
Take off your shoes
Because the jeans that I am posing
Are anything but blue
There were shadows, I remember shadows
All over me not long ago
Yes there were secrets and unlocked doors
There were mysteries of ages and oceans to explore
If I close my eyes, if I close my eyes
I can feel it all over again
And I know if there was danger
I know if there was doubt
I know if I had to keep running like hell
Just looking for a way to get out
I know if I was kidnapped
And nobody had a clue
After last night that kind of delight
All I'd have to do is think of you
And you could save me
You could save me
If I needed it right now
If I needed it right now
Honey you could save me
You could save me
Darling you know how
You know how
Honey you could save me
You could save me
Right now right now right now
I don't need a number
I don't need a phone
I got wisdom on my hands
And its creeping into my bones
And its 1-2-3 see how easy it could be
When you're sworn to secrecy
And now there's roses and things to do
And the sheets are in the laundry
And my mind should be there too
Because I'm waiting, yes I'm waiting
To feel it all over again
If I thought that I was followed
If I thought that I was lost
If I thought that I had gambled
And couldn't pay the cost
If I thought that I was crazy
If I thought I'd come unscrewed
After that fire that kind of desire
All I'd have to do is think of you too
And you could save me
You could save me
If I needed it right now
If I needed it right now
Honey you could save me
You could save me
Darling you know how
Yes you know how
Honey you could save me
You could save me
Right now right now right now
And if I thought that I was followed
If I thought that I was lost
If I thought that I had gambled
And I couldn't pay the cost
If I thought that I was crazy
If I thought I'd come unscrewed
After that fire that kind of desire
All I'd have to do is think of you too
And you could save me
Oh you could save me
If I needed it right now
If I needed it right now
Honey you could save me
Yes you could save me
Darling you know how
Hey you know how
Honey you could save me
Ooh you could save me
Right now right now
Ohh you could save me
Ohh you could save me
Right now right now right now
