You Saved Me
With one call you saved me
with one laugh I was cured
cause just one moment before the phone rang
I was at the end of my cord
I didn't know what to do
I wasn't sleeping
i was falling apart
like someone was playing a game of darts
aimmed at my heart
i couldn't breath and the room was spinnin'
many would ask If i was drunk
but of the oral poison I didn't indulge
I was overtaken by a mothering nature that had my
panties in a bunch
i was hanging by a thread and wanted it to be over so much
then the phone rang
you made me laugh
i wanted to cry
but you made me laugh
you saved me
but i just wanted to die
don't know how to thank you
i'm not suicidal
just emotional
im not crazy
just hormonal
i was cryin' but I couldnt let you know
i was dyin', dyin' real slow
then you called
and i wasn't dyin' no more
