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 take 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)
