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)
