Lyrics

[VERSE 1]
I see you sittin' there
Searched for you everywhere
Now that I've found you
I'm not gonna let you go
Are you here alone?
You're sitting by the phone
Did she stand you up
By now I'm sure you've had enough
So talk to me
I care, you see
I'm right before your eyes and
It should come as no surprise that

[CHORUS]
I'd be here for you
I'd wipe your tears for you
I'd lend my ear for you
Listen to only you... I would

[VERSE 2]
Let's take a walk to try and clear your head
You should be thinkin' about me instead
It's a matter of time before your wounds are healed
Isn't it obvious, the way I say your name
The way I stutter, bet it sounds so lame
You don't seem to care, you brushed back my hair
And kissed me sweetly at the bottom of the stairs

[CHORUS]
I would live for you
I would die for you
I'd step through fire for you
Walk on broken glass for you
I'll do all that I can
To make you understand
That I'm the girl for you
I get butterflies
When you look in my eyes
The way you stare at me
I get weak in the knees
If you want me to
I would rescue you... I would

[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
Baby, tell me what's on your mind
I wanna be here for you
I promise I won't hurt you
You can trust me

I will rescue you

We found a love so true
Forever me and you
I said I'd rescue you
