you need a saviour

michael w. smith

made a friend last night

or you thought you did

had a drink

had a talk

took a drive

shared the night

gave up a part of your soul

now she's gone and you're a little less alive. shake it off

never let your feelings begin

but your defenses are down and the fear is closing in. yes

you really need a saviour

somehow you've known it all along

yes

you really need a saviour

you know you've heard it for so long

yes

you really need a saviour

someone to come and lead you on

you need a saviour

you need a saviour

it's time

told yourself today just for your own sake

what was lost wouldn't cost anyway

life's a one night stand

this time you'll win

the up and down

life-long game that you play. shake it off

never let your feelings begin

but your defenses are down and the fear is closing in.
