Rescue me
Madonna Lyrics

I'm talking, I'm talking
I am expressing my thoughts and feelings

I believe in the power of love
I have faith in the strength and capability of love

I'm singing, I'm singing
I am expressing myself through song

I believe that you can rescue me
I have confidence that you can save me from my situation

With you I'm not a little girl
When I'm with you, I feel mature and grown-up

With you I'm not a man
When I'm with you, I don't feel like I need to act tough or macho

When all the hurt inside of me Comes out, you understand
When I express my pain to you, you empathize and comprehend

You see that I'm ferocious
You recognize that I can be fierce and intense

You see that I am weak
You acknowledge that I have vulnerabilities and flaws

You see that I am silly And pretentious and a freak
You observe that I can be nonsensical, arrogant, and eccentric

But I don't feel too strange for you
I don't sense that I'm too odd or bizarre for you

Don't know exactly what you do
I am unsure of how you are able to accept and love me for who I am

I think when love is pure you try To understand the reasons why
I believe that genuine love prompts one to seek comprehension about their partner

And I prefer this mystery
I find comfort in the fact that I can't entirely fathom your love for me

It cancels out my misery And gives me hope that there could be A person that loves me
Your love eliminates my sorrow and inspires optimism that I can find someone who truly cares for me

Rescue me (rescue me, it's hard to believe) Your love has given me hope
I'm imploring you to save me and expressing gratitude that your love has instilled hope in me

Rescue me (rescue me, it's hard to believe) I'm drowning Baby throw out your rope
I'm acknowledging that I'm in dire need of your help and requesting that you aid me

With you I'm not a fascist
With you, I don't exert a dictatorial or oppressive attitude

Can't play you like a toy
I can't manipulate or control you like a plaything

And when I need to dominate You're not my little boy
When I want to command or rule, you don't comply like a subordinate

You see that I am hungry For a life of understanding
You perceive that I crave a life of comprehension and knowledge

And you forgive my angry little heart When she's demanding
You pardon my irritable and forceful nature when it arises

You bring me to my knees While I'm scratching out the eyes Of a world I want to conquer And deliver and despise
You humble me when I'm fighting and striving to triumph over and revile the world

And right while I am standing there I suddenly begin to care And understand that there could be A person that loves me
In the midst of our interactions, I unexpectedly begin to value and realize that I could be loved by someone

Love is understanding It's hard to believe
Love entails comprehension, even though it's difficult to comprehend

Life can be so demanding I'm sending out an S.O.S.
Life can be arduous, and I'm desperately requesting assistance

Stop me from drowning Baby I'll do the rest
Prevent me from sinking deeper into despair, and I'll manage the rest

Ooh aah, ooh aah, love is understanding Ooh aah, ooh, aah love is understanding
Love involves comprehension, and this realization prompts me to vocalize my thoughts through exclamations

It's not my business to decide How good you are for me How valuable you are And what the world can see
It's not my responsibility to determine your suitability or worth, nor concern myself with the perception of the world

Only that you try to understand me And have the courage To love me for me
All that matters is that you attempt to comprehend me and possess the bravery to adore me for who I am

I believe (I believe in the power) I believe (I believe that you can rescue me)
I have faith in the strength and potential of love and trust in your ability to save me from my troubles

I'm saying I believe (I believe in the power) I believe (I believe that you can rescue me)
I'm reiterating my confidence in the strength of love and your capacity to deliver me from my predicament

I'm saying, I'm saying, I'm saying, I believe that you can rescue me I'm talking, I'm talking, I believe in the power of love I'm talking, I'm talking, I believe in the power of love
I'm continuously affirming my belief in the power of love and the notion that you can save me

I'm singing, I'm singing I believe that you can rescue me Hey hey hey, R-E-S-C-U-E M-E, only you can rescue me Hey hey hey, I believe you can rescue me
Through my singing, I'm expressing my conviction that you can deliver me and pleading with you for help

Rescue me (rescue me) Your love has given me hope (your love has given me hope)
I'm beseeching you to help me and acknowledging that your love has given me optimism

Rescue me (rescue me) I'm drowning Baby throw out your rope (baby throw out the rope)
I'm admitting that I'm suffering and struggling, and asking you to lend a hand

Rescue me (rescue me) Your love has given me hope (your love has given me hope) Rescue me (rescue me) I'm drowning Baby throw out your rope (baby throw out the rope)
I'm reinforcing my plea for assistance and expressing my gratitude for the hope your love has instilled in me
