Save Me Songtext

von The Undertones

I was born to be restless, I cant sleep
Cause the southern missile stole my time
Start my life on the run
Point my wheels at the sun
And I drive till I close my eyes.

The dashboard drummer starts the music
As I drive through the Philadelphia night
Let the dust be my wake
Put the candles on the cake
Make a wish then you blow them out

Its not in the cards tonight
Not in the diamonds that you hold
Not in the cards tonight

I know it will save me
Hit the highway and Ill leave tonight
In the past it would break me
Rolling stone, Im a satellite
I wouldnt do this if I knew I could choose
Its the carnival life but it wont save me now

Im proud and brave through the great plains
With the heart of a soldier on my sleeve
Im a causeway star
Im a roadside bar
Im a fire in the cold desert night
