The Remedy of Relief
I’d be the only one to save me
To heal me completely, to set me free
Set me free from despondency
Wish you’d understand me, baby
I’m patiently a wanderlust boy
In a world full of angst and joy
I’m delightfully angry like a ram
I’m hoping you’ll save me as I am
I’m a lovely sheep in godly sleep
I’m a broken dam…I weep in the deep
Remedy of relief — come shine on me
Relieve me from anxiety and grief, that’s my only plea…
That’s my only plea…
Be with me, baby…
I’m a lonely shadow amongst the dark
I’m a broken dam…a singing, longing lark
Remedy of relief — moonshine of cheer
Relieve me from my anxiety and my fear, that’s my only plea, my dear
That’s my only plea…
Be with me, baby…
Melancholy misery…come shine on me
Wish you could be happy with me, baby
Faith in God is saving my life, my life
Aside from the darkness that tries to consume me
I know He loves me despite the strife
He’ll set me free from despondency’s hold to a certain degree
A captivity that’s so cold and empty as my misery’s company
I’m patiently a wanderlust boy
In a world full of angst and joy
I’m delightfully angry as a ram
I’m hoping you’ll save me as I am
I’m a lovely sheep in godly sleep
I’m a broken dam…I weep in the deep
Remedy of relief — come shine on me
Relieve me from anxiety and grief, that’s my only plea…
That’s my only plea…
Be with me, baby…
That’s my only plea, my dear love of mine
That’s my only plea’s for you to be my shine
I’m a lonely shadow amongst the dark
I’m a broken dam…a singing, longing lark
Remedy of relief — moonshine of cheer
Relieve me from my anxiety and my fear
Please make me happy and gay today…
I don’t want to give in to my sadness day by day
I don’t want to be full of dismay, okay?
I just want you to hold me tight and stay…
Hold on to me…
Move on like the sea
Save me from me…
I’m a mess, you see?
Remedy of relief will see to it
That I’ll be set free bit by bit
I’ll be set free…set free…
Just let me be…let me be…
Save me from fretful fear…
Give me a reason to feel cheer…
In these darksome times of stress
I want to make progress and earn happiness
Please…that’s my only plea…
Set me at ease, be with me…
