Janis Ian — Save Somebody 2002

[Verse 1] In the heart of the city is the beat of a soul And it stares out the window as the cars come and go And it hungers for heroes, and it dreams of open skies And there's no expectation that the sun will rise [Chorus] You better save somebody Save somebody Before the moment slips away You better save somebody Who'll be lonely When you walk away [Verse 2] There's a crack in the heavens and a tear in the sky And it cuts through the shadows living in her eyes And the gates of the city are closed until dawn When the ghosts of midnight have come and gone And the hearts of the weary carry on [Chorus] You better save somebody Save somebody Before the moment slips away You better save somebody Who'll be lonely When you walk away [Bridge] And I'm thinking of your silence How the memory lingers on And I wonder do you miss me Now that I am gone Now that I am gone [Chorus] You better save somebody Save somebody Before the moment slips away You better save somebody Who'll be lonely When you walk away When you walk away When you walk away
