After he hurt you, you said you were leaving
You got up to walk out the door
The story he's telling you, you weren't believin'
You've certainly heard it before
And I can't stand it, you're feeling so sad
I can't take it, it's makin' me mad

Say the word and I will rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you

I could be wrong, but unless I'm mistaken, it's only a matter of time
And I know you're giving him more than you've taken
You've come to the end of the line
And I can't stand it, you're feeling so sad
I can't take it, it's makin' me mad

Say the word and I will rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)

Something missing in your life; tell you what I say
Blues are on the run and help is on the way
Something missing in your life; tell you what I'll do
Just like in a fairy tale, I'll rescue you. I'm gonna rescue you

I just can't stand it when your feeling so sad
I can't take it, it's making me mad

Something missing in your life; tell you what I say
Blues are on the run and help is on the way
Something missing in your life; tell you what I'll do
Just like in a fairy tale, I'll rescue you. I'm gonna rescue you

Say the word and I will rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you
(You know that help is on the way)
