Who's Gonna Save Us
Gavin DeGraw Lyrics

I know you got a wild side that I don't wanna hold back
I understand that you have a free-spirited nature, and I don't want to stifle it.

And everyone I ever had, was just from being stupid and
In the past, all my relationships were founded on foolishness.

I was standing at the edge, we've never been here before
I feel like we're in uncharted territory, taking a risk on this relationship.

So are we gonna give in' what happens if we fall
Should we give in to our feelings and risk the consequences if things don't work out?

Who's gonna save, who's gonna save us tonight, tonight
Who will protect us from possible consequences or failures?

And we're too cool with this
We've been too complacent or indifferent about the possible outcomes.

But it's just to shun to fight
It's easier to ignore the potential problems than to confront them.

Politics and presidents, it's like there building a wall
Leadership and bureaucracy often create obstacles that hinder progress or personal growth.

I got me own line of defense, somehow you broke through it all
I usually have my guard up, but you managed to win me over.

At the bottom of an empty bottle, it's where the truth starts to spill
When we let our guard down, our true feelings and thoughts become more apparent.

Don't wanna wake up with regret
I don't want to make a decision that I'll regret later.

From this feeling that we can count
I don't want our emotions to cloud our better judgment.

See, and believe, you're making me breath
Your presence is so comforting that it feels like I can breathe more easily.

Deeper than the ocean
Our connection goes beyond the superficial, and is more profound than words can describe.

Personas, who can we call
In a superficial world that values appearances over authenticity, who can we turn to?

But risking what we have, it's something more
Our connection is worth the risk, it's deeper than mere attraction.

Don't wanna lose it all
I don't want to risk everything and end up with nothing.

We've been way too cool with this
We've been too aloof and indifferent about the depth of our connection.

But these words too hard to find
It's difficult to express the depth of what we feel.

Should we stop, should we wait
Should we pause and consider what we're risking, or should we just take the plunge?

Before it's too late, to be stopped, should we wait
Before it's too late, we should consider if we should stop and wait before it's too late.

Tell me who's gonna save, who's gonna save us tonight, tonight
Who will help us save our connection from potential harm or danger?
