Aerosmith(에어로스미스) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm alone, yeah, I don't know if I can face the night
I'm in tears and the cryin' that I do is for you
I want your love
Let's break the walls between us
Don't make it tough
I'll put away my pride
Enough's enough
I've suffered and I've seen the light

Bayayby, you're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and make it alright

Don't know what I'm gonna do about this feeling inside
Yes it's true, loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love I'm nothing but a beggar
Without your love a dog without a bone
What can I do? I'm sleepin' in this bed alone

Bayayby, you're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and make it alright

Come and save me tonight
You're the reason I live
You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give when I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why
Baby, baby, bayayby
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Yeah, come and make it alright
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and take me alright
Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight




Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight

Lost my dad at 14. Cirrhosis. He went to extreme lengths to avoid any of us knowing he was ill.
He began to bleed out of everywhere on Halloween 1998 and went into a coma. They tried to fix him but he was hemophiliac and kept bleeding out.

I was brought in to say goodbye on November 23rd,’98.
He passed on the 24th.

I miss my dad. He was the most beautiful man I have ever seen. He wrote and he knew music better than anyone. I got his vinyl.
I played this song on repeat-it’s not a song about loss but it fit for me-for two weeks.

Anyway-love you dad. I miss you everyday.
