Rescue Me
Marie Wilson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As morning touches another day
I lay here thinking are you lonely
Well I asked you would you stay
Come on stay

I don't mean to be so desperate
I don't want to bother you
But if you find it in your heart to change your mind
Come around, come around

Rescue me
Can't you see I'm falling
You turned away
Before I could say that I'm always
Falling over you

I can't seem to find the time
To figure out just what you're feeling
Would it change things if I cried
Or would you run and hide

I will never tire of waiting
I won't give up on you
And if you feel like you want a change of heart
Come around, come around

Rescue me
Can't you see I'm falling
You turned away
Before I could say that I'm always
Falling over you

Falling over you
Falling, falling

Rescue me
Can't you see I'm falling
You turned away




Before I could say that I'm always
Falling over you

Line by Line Meaning

As morning touches another day
As the sun rises on a new day


I lay here thinking are you lonely
I wonder if you're feeling alone


Well I asked you would you stay
I requested that you stay with me


Come on stay
Please don't go


I don't mean to be so desperate
I'm not trying to be clingy


I don't want to bother you
I don't want to annoy you


But if you find it in your heart to change your mind
But if you decide you want to be with me after all


Come around, come around
Please come see me


Rescue me
Save me from feeling this way


Can't you see I'm falling
Don't you realize I'm in love with you


You turned away
You rejected me


Before I could say that I'm always
Before I could confess that I always


Falling over you
Fall for you


I can't seem to find the time
I'm too busy to understand what you're feeling


To figure out just what you're feeling
To understand your emotions


Would it change things if I cried
Would it make a difference if I showed my emotions


Or would you run and hide
Or would you get scared and avoid me


I will never tire of waiting
I'll wait for you as long as it takes


I won't give up on you
I won't stop believing in us


And if you feel like you want a change of heart
And if you change your mind


Rescue me
Save me from feeling this way


Can't you see I'm falling
Don't you realize I'm in love with you


You turned away
You rejected me


Before I could say that I'm always
Before I could confess that I always


Falling over you
Fall for you


Falling over you
Fall for you


Falling, falling
Continuously falling in love with you


Rescue me
Save me from feeling this way


Can't you see I'm falling
Don't you realize I'm in love with you


You turned away
You rejected me


Before I could say that I'm always
Before I could confess that I always


Falling over you
Fall for you
