Fell all the way to the ground
Stayed there and crawled around
Boy I was there, I was down
I hollered, save me
To wash it off would not work
From the inside out it would hurt
You can only go so far down in the dirt
I cried save me
Sweet bird of youth
Save me
I believe the truth
Is gonna save me
An old time friend turned on me
Just when I began to believe
With friends like that I don't need enemies
I cried save me, save me
What do I see down there by the riverside?
Beautiful child running up to me
With arms open wide
Time has come to be set free
Save me
Looking back now I can see
What's come about and how
You must be the answer to my prayers
I cried save me
Sweet bird of youth
Save me
I believe the truth
Is gonna save me
Save me, save me
Save me, save me
