Anna Clendening - Save You

[Verse 1]
Mom says you haven't called her
And last time that she saw ya
It brought her to tears
You're no good at faking
Late night, self-medicating
For weeks you disappear

[Pre-Chorus]
My heart, it sinks every time the phone rings
And I see the worst in my head
And God only knows all the pain that you hold
I wish I could take it instead

[Chorus]
If you were falling then I'd grow wings
If you were drowning, I'd tear apart the sea
If you were a sinner, then I'd freeze hell
But I can't save you
No, I can't save you from yourself

[Post-Chorus]
Save you, save you
Save you, save you from yourself

[Verse 2]
It broke my heart to pieces
The night your car broke down
And you thought you couldn't call, hmm-mm
You cried in the front seat
Feeling helpless, I feel guilty
Like it somehow is my fault
[Pre-Chorus]
And my heart, it sinks every time that I think
Of you riding so close to the edge
And God only knows all the pain that you hold
I wish I could take it instead

[Chorus]
If you were falling then I'd grow wings
If you were drowning, I'd tear apart the sea
If you were a sinner, I'd freeze hell
But I can't save you
No, I can't save you from yourself

[Post-Chorus]
Save you, save you
Save you, save you from yourself

[Outro]
Save you (If I could)
Save you (You know I would)
Save you, save you from yourself
(Wish I could save you from yourself)
Save you (If I could)
Save you (You know I would)
Save you, save you from yourself
(Then I could save you from yourself)
Save you, save you
Save you, save you from—
(I wish I could save you from yourself)
