Lyrical Poetry

Rescue Me

Deeper and deeper I’m falling

In a spiral I don’t understand

Waiting for someone to catch hold of my hand.

I want to be held. Is that so much to ask?

Oh, where is the one waiting for me?

I feel your arms around me

Though I don’t know who you are

How can I feel so close to you

And yet so very far?

I need you to find me

Come into my heart

I’m waiting. Come, rescue me.

Save me from these lonely nights

These days spent in a daze

My heart is ready and open

Waiting for the day, you’ll rescue me.

I live each day in wonder

Hoping you might come

Into my world so empty

Waiting for your love

I’m lost without you darling

I don’t know what to do

Please hurry. Come, rescue me.

Save me from these lonely nights

These days spent in a daze

My heart is ready and open

Waiting for the day, you’ll rescue me.

As days go by, my thoughts of you

Grow ever strong

This love kept ever waiting

Is anxious to begin

It’s waiting for the day

When you walk into my life.

I’m waiting. Come, rescue me.

In years to come I’ll look back

And smile at my restless heart.

In days to come I’ll be with you

Knowing that from the start

You were meant to rescue me.

Save me from these lonely nights

These days spent in a daze

My heart is ready and open

Waiting for the day, you’ll rescue me.
