All at once I was filled with doubt
Couldn\'t hear what you were talking about
Shutting down and shutting you out
No emotions to be shared
Pretending as if I never cared
Then there you were
because you wanted to be
You showed up to rescue me
Knowing I was sinking fast
Into the habits of my past
Denying any feelings could exist
You being more then I could ever resist
Thanks for helping to work it out
For not walking away from what
we needed to talk about
All the things still unsaid
All the doubt creeping into my head
The way I watch your eyes dart away
The things you might have forgotten to say
All the things I could never know
Trying not to worry as I watch you go
But then you just pushed right on through
All the damage the words could do
And we talked about everything,
Even though it was hard
For you to get past my guard
You and I talked about it all
Using all the right words
to break down my wall
Once again I have fallen for you
And all the things that you do
It makes me feel safer knowing I can share
Knowing you will always let me know you care
That you can tell me how you feel
And I don\'t have to wonder if it\'s real
Already you have rescued me again and again
Making it safe for me to give in
And not to fight against
what my heart already knows
Letting everything fall away
so only our love shows
Rescuing me the way you do
You and I working it through
Back and forth until there is no space
Between our hearts and our embrace
Rescue me again my dear
Save me please from my own fear.
You\'re the man who has my heart
Rescuing me from the start
