Somebody Saved Me - Pete Townshend[00:00:00]
Written by:Pete Townsh[00:00:02]
I stood at the door beside her[00:00:07]
But she wouldn't let me pass[00:00:09]
I was such a bore and I lied to her[00:00:12]
I said I didn't really want her ass[00:00:15]
I went away in the mud and rain[00:00:18]
The gang became snide and laughed[00:00:21]
I was slain but I smiled and the pain[00:00:24]
Began to subside at last[00:00:27]
And when I got back to my hotel[00:00:30]
I wondered if the thunder meant I'd landed in hell[00:00:33]
And on the forecourt I slipped and fell[00:00:36]
I cracked my stupid head and I heard a bell[00:00:39]
I thought hey[00:00:41]
Somebody saved me it happened again[00:00:47]
Somebody saved me I thank you my friend[00:00:53]
Somebody saved me[00:00:59]
From a fate worse than heaven[00:01:01]
'Cause if I'd had her for just an hour[00:01:05]
I'd have wanted her forever[00:01:07]
Somebody saved me[00:01:11]
You would have thought that I'd have learned[00:01:18]
Twenty years ago or more[00:01:20]
A beautiful girl raised her mouth and yearned[00:01:23]
But I didn't know what lips were for[00:01:25]
I ran away in the mud and rain[00:01:29]
The weather here is never too bright[00:01:32]
She'd had an affray with her man and came[00:01:35]
For solace and the means to fight[00:01:38]
She finally bored with seducing me[00:01:41]
And took up with some[00:01:43]
Geezer from the ealing scene[00:01:44]
It nearly killed him like it would've killed me[00:01:47]
When her original man snapped[00:01:49]
His fingers and she obeyed she obeyed[00:01:51]
But somebody saved me it happened again[00:01:57]
Somebody saved me I thank you my friend[00:02:03]
Somebody saved me from a fate worse than heaven[00:02:09]
'Cause if I'd had her for just an hour[00:02:15]
I'd have wanted her forever[00:02:18]
I don't know about guardian angels[00:02:22]
All I know about's staying alive[00:02:25]
I can't shout about spiritual labels[00:02:28]
When little ones die and big ones thrive[00:02:30]
All I know is that I've been making it[00:02:34]
And there've been times that I didn't deserve to[00:02:36]
Every show there's been more faking it[00:02:39]
But right at the point of no return[00:02:42]
Somebody saves me again and again[00:02:44]
Somebody saves me I thank you my friend[00:02:49]
Somebody saves me[00:02:55]
From a fate worse than heaven[00:02:58]
'Cause if I blew it for a single moment[00:03:02]
I'd blow it forever[00:03:04]
But somebody saves me[00:03:07]
I took up the connection once[00:03:14]
Made me feel quite aloof[00:03:17]
I never could queue to collect my lunch[00:03:20]
While I was pursuing the truth[00:03:23]
So I left my folks in the mud and rain[00:03:25]
It always rains in Sunnyside Road[00:03:28]
I lived hippy jokes getting stoned insane[00:03:31]
Till the rain looked just like snow[00:03:34]
But there was a soul in whom I could depend[00:03:37]
He worked himself crazy while I laid in bed[00:03:40]
I never leaned on a person like I leaned right then[00:03:43]
And when I finally woke up clean[00:03:46]
My friend was dead stone dead[00:03:48]
Somebody saved me it happened again[00:03:54]
Somebody saved me I thank you my friend[00:03:59]
Somebody saved me I ain't ready for heaven[00:04:05]
'Cause if I'd seen you for a second[00:04:12]
I'd have wanted to see you forever[00:04:14]
Somebody saved me[00:04:17]
Somebody saved me[00:04:40]
