Rescue - Christopher Cross, Cross, Christopher

Sweet surprise — you care for me

Such a perfect square for me

It’s been so long since a happy song was in my life

Soft of heart and warm of hand

Loathe to judge in your rainbow land

Safe in there in your own god’s care until today

And I say

I will rescue you from behind your garden wall

And I will be there when you fall

When you’re falling, falling, falling…

At the start I’ll allow your joy inside

But I’ll never be satisfied

Not until I’ve twisted your will into my own

Stay with me and gone’s the lark

Days go dim and thoughts grow dark

Discontent and time misspent will rule our day

Still I say

I will rescue you even though no dangers call

And you’ll go with me when I fall

I will rescue you from behind your garden wall

And I will be there

I will rescue you even though no dangers call

And you’ll go with me when I fall

When I’m falling

Falling
