Generate meaning
1
I stood at the door beside her
2
But she wouldn't let me pass
3
I was such a bore and I lied to her
4
I said I didn't really want her ass
5
I went away in the mud and rain
6
The gang became snide and laughed
7
I was slayed but I smiled and the pain
8
Began to subside at last
9
And when I got back to my hotel
10
I wondered if the thunder meant I'd landed in hell
11
And on the forecourt I slipped and fell
12
I cracked my stupid head and I heard a bell
13
I thought, hey
14
Somebody saved me
15
It happened again
16
Somebody saved me
17
I thank you my friend
18
Somebody saved me
19
From a fate worse than heaven
20
'Cause if I'd had her for just an hour
21
I'd have wanted her forever
22
Somebody saved me
23
You would have thought that I'd have learned
24
Twenty years ago or more
25
A beautiful girl raised her mouth and yearned
26
But I didn't know what lips were for
27
I ran away in the mud and rain
28
The weather here is never too bright
29
She'd had an affray with her man and came
30
For solace and the means to fight
31
She finally bored with seducing me
32
And took up with some geezer from the ealing scene
33
It nearly killed him like it would've killed me
34
When her original man snapped his fingers
35
And she obeyed, she obeyed
36
But somebody saved me
37
It happened again
38
Somebody saved me, yeah
39
I thank you my friend
40
Somebody saved me
41
From a fate worse than heaven
42
'Cause if I'd had her for just an hour
43
I'd have wanted her forever
44
I don't know about guardian angels
45
All I know abouts staying alive
46
I can't shout about spiritual labels
47
When little ones die and big ones thrive
48
All I know is that I've been making it
49
And there have been times that I didn't deserve to
50
Every show there's been more faking it
51
But right at the point of no return
52
Somebody saves me
53
Again and again
54
Somebody saves me
55
I thank you my friend
56
Somebody saves me
57
From a fate worse than heaven
58
'Cause if I blew it for a single moment
59
I'd blow it forever
60
But somebody saves me
61
I took up the connection once
62
Made me feel quite aloof
63
I never could queue to collect my lunch
64
While I was pursuing the truth
65
So I left my folks in the mud and rain
66
It always rains in Sunny side road
67
I lived hippy jokes, getting stoned insane
68
Till the rain looked just like snow
69
But there was a soul in whom I could depend
70
He worked himself crazy while I laid in bed
71
I never leaned on a person like I leaned right then
72
And when I finally woke up clean
73
My friend was dead, stone dead
74
Somebody saved me
75
It happened again
76
Somebody saved me
77
I thank you my friend
78
Somebody saved me
79
I ain't ready for heaven
80
'Cause if I'd seen you for a second
81
I'd have wanted to see you forever
82
Somebody saved me
83
Somebody saved me
