Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Every now and then I get a little lost My strings all get tangled, my wires all get crossed Every now and then I'm right up on the edge Dangling my toes out over the ledge I just thank God you're here Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun Cause when I'm a firecracker comin' undone Or when I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy No matter where my reckless soul takes me Baby, you save me It's hard lovin' a man, that's got a Gypsy soul I don't know how you do it; I'm not sure how you know The perfect thing to say, to save me from myself You're the angel that believes in me, like nobody else And I thank God you do Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun Cause when I'm a firecracker comin' undone Or when I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy No matter where my reckless soul takes me Baby, you save me I know I don't tell you nearly enough That I couldn't live one day without your love When I'm a ship tossed around on the waves Up on a high wire that's ready to break When I've had just about all I can take Baby, you Baby, you save me Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun Cause when I'm a firecracker comin' undone Or when I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy No matter where my reckless soul takes me Baby, you save me
