Rescue

Written by: Mandee Radford

Baby, it's not me
Who's been rockin this boat
Just the wind and the waves of life
Just the way that it goes
I've been trying to figure out why we keep pulling each other down
The way that it looks to me
We're both drowning in the open sea

You expect me to save you
When I need to be saved myself
Both calling for rescue
So it's gotta be someone else
It's gotta come from somewhere else

If we never talk
How do you think you'd know
Better bail out the water quickly
Baby, I'm drowning slow
I've been thinking about jumping ship
But I'm scared to death of dying alone
Here in this boat with you feels a little like I'm dying too

You expect me to save you
When I need to be saved myself
Both calling for rescue
So it's gotta be someone else
It's gotta come from somewhere

I thought that I could be strong enough for both of us
Baby, believe me
I want to be brave
Still I can't find the strength

To save you
Both calling for rescue

You expect me to save you
When I need to be saved myself
Both calling for rescue
So it's gotta be someone else
It's gotta be someone else
It's gotta come from somewhere else

Baby, it's not me
Baby, it's not me
