Lyrics Cass McCombs

Cass McCombs

You Saved My Life

In this spare room

we better see what we have and whom

An I.O.U. for the Same Thing

Only angels have wings, so they say

Here I stand, alive unto you

My fate's mercy seat

sought blood to gulp and flesh to eat

And I can't blame you enough

but I'm indepted to your mercy and your love

Here I stand, alive unto

alive unto you

because you saved my life

Now I see there's so much to lose

so much to lose

because you saved my life

Darling, now I

must live for you

One reprieve grants another

until each world is born anew

Never understand, never can ignore

I'm rotten to the core, since 1994
