Love will save you when the ocean splits itself in two 
Love will save you when the cold wind blows right through you 
Love will save you when the poison eats the precious air 
And love will save you from the snake that crawls around down there 
But it won't save me 

Love will save you from the evil and the greed of ignorant men 
And love will save you from the guilt you feel when you 
betray your only friend 
Love will save you from yourself when you lose control 
And love will save you from all the lies your lover ever told you 
But it won't save me 

Love will save you from the [bad word] when you think you're free 
Love will save you from the cold light of boring reality 
Love will save you from the [bad word] of your lazy-minded soul 
And love will save you from your selfish and distorted goals 
But it won't save me 

Love will save you from the black night and the lightning and the ghost 
Love will save you from your misery, then tie you to the bloody post 
Love will save you from the hands that pull you down beneath the sea 
Love may save all you people, but it will never, never save me 
No it won't save me
