Every now and then I get a little lost   My strings all get tangled, my wires all get crossed   Every now and then I'm right up on the edge   Dangling my toes out over the ledge   I just thank God you're here      'Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun   'Cause when I'm a firecracker comin' undone   Or when I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy   No matter where my reckless soul takes me, baby you save me      It's hard lovin' a man that's got a gypsy soul   I don't know how you do it, I'm not sure how you know   The perfect thing to say to save me from myself   You're the angel that believes in me like nobody else   And I thank God you do      'Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun   When I'm a firecracker comin' undone   When I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy   No matter where my reckless soul takes me, baby you save me      I know I don't tell you nearly enough   But I couldn't live one day without your love      When I'm a ship tossed around on the waves   Up on a high wire that's ready to break   When I've had just about all I can take   Baby you, baby you save me      When I'm a bullet shot out of a gun   When I'm a firecracker comin' undone   When I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy   No matter where my reckless soul takes me, baby you save me
