Text: Chris Knight. Enough Rope. Saved By Love.
I wasn't stranded in the desert
I wasn't drifting out to sea
I was in no kind of danger
That would be the death of me
But when you took me in your arms
Like an angel from above
I was saved, saved by love
Iwasn't strung out in some alley
With a habit I couldn't kick
Wasn't lost in dark depression
I wasn't hurting. I wasn't sick
Didn't have all that I needed
But what I had seemed like enough
'Til I was saved, saved by love
You don't long for what you don't know
You don't miss what you never had
You just watch your life float on by
Not too good, not too bad
Looking back before you found me
What a sad, sad case I was
'Til I was saved, saved by love
Now I look at all the wrong turns
I've passed along the way
The dead ends I'd of raced down
And the price I would've paid
There but for the grace of you
Who knows where I'd of wound up
But I was saved, saved by love
Yeah I was saved, saved by love
I wasn't drifting out to sea
I was in no kind of danger
That would be the death of me
But when you took me in your arms
Like an angel from above
I was saved, saved by love
Iwasn't strung out in some alley
With a habit I couldn't kick
Wasn't lost in dark depression
I wasn't hurting. I wasn't sick
Didn't have all that I needed
But what I had seemed like enough
'Til I was saved, saved by love
You don't long for what you don't know
You don't miss what you never had
You just watch your life float on by
Not too good, not too bad
Looking back before you found me
What a sad, sad case I was
'Til I was saved, saved by love
Now I look at all the wrong turns
I've passed along the way
The dead ends I'd of raced down
And the price I would've paid
There but for the grace of you
Who knows where I'd of wound up
But I was saved, saved by love
Yeah I was saved, saved by love
