Hey I know
When the wind comes blowing across the meadows
It sings your name
And I've seen
The starry nights fall across the ghettos
It sings the same
And I feel
The light in your eye
And it's calling me
Stay, just a little bit longer
It burns
Like a fiery star
In the midst of the night
And it's pulling me under
Can anybody save me, save me
Save me from the storm
Save me, save me
Save me, 'fore I'm gone
I'm only a man
And a man's gotta break
There's a lot who can stand
But not a lot who can take
Save me
Something is taking me over
And there's no place that I can hide
Sweet dreams
My love and I by the edge of the river
Are feeling that glow
And we drink
Making love in the sand
And I love being with her
But I got to go slow
'Cause I know
Just as sure as the waves come beat on the sand
I'm a man who's divided
And one night
Burning hot with a kiss and I try to resist
But there's no way to fight it
Hey, can anybody save me, save me
Save me from the storm
Save me, save me
Save me, 'fore I'm gone
I'm only a man
And a man's gotta break
There's a lot who can stand
But not a lot who can take
Save me
Something is taking me over
And there's no where that I can hide
Won't you save me
Someone is making me love her
It's breaking me up inside
