Save me, somebody save me Save me, somebody save me
I promised myself after the last romance That I wouldn't give ya a second chance They say to you seek, you're sure to find And I know how sure that is 'Cause the closer I get to ya, baby You're driving me clean out of my mind
I say save me Somebody save me Anybody save me If somebody save me
Those who love always give the most We're cryin' together from coast to coast 'Cause love makes me cold and hurt inside These tears of ours unjustified Beggin' ya to save me Good lord Somebody save me
Those who love always give the most We're cryin' together from coast to coast 'Cause love leaves us cold and hurt inside These tears of ours unjustified
Your never said ya needed me You abused my love, to set me free You didn't need me, you didn't even want me Somebody help me, this man wants to taunt me
Calling the Cape Crusader, Green Hornet, Batman, Kadoo too, anybody I'm in so much trouble, I don't know what to do yeah If you're thinkin' a thing about me If you love me at all If you love me at all
I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about half past dead; I just need some place where I can lay my head. "Hey, mister, can you tell me where a girl might find a bed?" He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No," was all he said.
(Chorus:) Take a load off Annie, take a load off for free; Take a load off Annie, And (and) (and) put the weight on me.
I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide; When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side. I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown." She said, "Well I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."
(Chorus)
Go down, Moses, there's nothin' that you can say It's just like ol' Luke waitin', waitin' on Judgement Day. "Well, Luke, my friend, what about Anna Lee?" He said, "Do me a favour, stay an' keep Anna Lee some company."
(Chorus)
Catch me a cannon ball, now take me on down the line My bag is sinkin' low, and I believe that it's about time. To get in touch with Annie, you know she's the one. Who sent me here with her regards for everyone?
I would have given you all of my heart But there's someone who's torn it apart And he's taken almost all that I've got But if you want, I'll try to love again Baby, I'll try to love again, but I know
The first cut is the deepest Baby, I know the first cut is the deepest 'Cause when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed When it comes to loving me, he's worst But when it comes to being loved, he's first That's how I know
The first cut is the deepest Baby, I know the first cut is the deepest
I still want you by my side Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried And I'm sure gonna give you a try And if you want, I'll try to love again Baby, I'll try to love again, but I know
Oh yeah The first cut is the deepest Baby, I know the first cut is the deepest 'Cause when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed When it comes to loving me, he's worst But when it comes to being loved, he's first That's how I know
The first cut is the deepest Baby, I know the first cut is the deepest Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah, baby, baby, baby, I know the first cut is the deepest Baby, I know the first cut is the deepest 'Cause when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed When it comes to loving me, she's worst But when it comes to being loved, he's first
Baby, I'm yours (baby, I'm yours) And I'll be yours (yours) until the stars fall from the sky-y-y-y-y Yours (yours) until the rivers all run dry In other words, until I di-i-ie
Baby, I'm yours (baby, I'm yours) And I'll be yours (yours) until the sun no longer shi-i-i-i-ines Yours (yours) until the poets run out of rhyme In other words, until the end of time
I'm gonna stay right here by your side Do my best to keep you satisfied Nothin' in the world can drive me away Every day you'll hear me say
Baby, I'm yours (baby, I'm yours) And I'll be yours (yours) until two and two is three-ee-ee-ee-ee Yours (yours) until the mountain crumbles to the sea In other words, until eternity
Baby, I'm yours Till the stars fall from the sky Baby, I'm yours Till the rivers all run dry Baby, I'm yours FADE Till the poets run out of rhyme
