Lyrics

[00:15.37] When I think of those east end lights, muggy nights
[00:20.26] The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
[00:28.07] Prima donna lord you really should have been there
[00:31.47] Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
[00:38.21] And its one more beer and I dont hear you anymore
[00:46.06] Weve all gone crazy lately
[00:49.28] My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
[00:55.55]
[01:01.47] And someone saved my life tonight
[01:04.89] sugar bear
[01:09.00] You almost had your hooks in me
[01:12.32] didnt you dear
[01:14.73] You nearly had me roped and tied
[01:19.62] Altar-bound, hypnotized
[01:22.97] Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
[01:26.53] Youre a butterfly
[01:30.60] And butterflies are free to fly
[01:34.38] Fly away,
[01:38.23] high away, bye bye
[01:44.79]
[02:07.58] I never realised the passing hours of evening showers
[02:12.77] A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
[02:18.48] Im strangled by your haunted social scene
[02:23.74] Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
[02:29.59] Its four oclock in the morning
[02:34.53] Damn it listen to me good
[02:38.93] Im sleeping with myself tonight
[02:42.43] Saved in time, thank God my musics still alive
[02:47.83]
[02:54.27] And someone saved my life tonight
[02:57.69] sugar bear
[03:01.79] You almost had your hooks in me
[03:05.21] didnt you dear
[03:07.62] You nearly had me roped and tied
[03:12.69] Altar-bound, hypnotized
[03:16.41] Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
[03:19.72] Youre a butterfly
[03:24.04] And butterflies are free to fly
[03:27.81] Fly away,
[03:31.65] high away, bye bye
[03:36.20]
[04:03.19] And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
[04:09.19] Clinging to your stocks and bonds
[04:11.90] Paying your h.p. demands forever
[04:16.07] Theyre coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
[04:23.42] Someone saved my life tonight,
[04:27.03] someone saved my life tonight
[04:30.81] Someone saved my life tonight,
[04:34.12] someone saved my life tonight
[04:37.67] Someone saved my life tonight
[04:41.70] So save your strength and run the field you play alone
[04:47.15]
[04:49.60] And someone saved my life tonight
[04:52.69] sugar bear
[04:56.73] You almost had your hooks in me
[05:00.20] didnt you dear
[05:02.54] You nearly had me roped and tied
[05:07.56] Altar-bound, hypnotized
[05:10.64] Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
[05:14.48] Youre a butterfly
[05:18.49] And butterflies are free to fly
[05:22.28] Fly away,
[05:25.99] high away, bye bye
[05:30.27]
[05:55.84] Someone saved Someone saved Someone saved my life tonight
[06:02.66] Someone saved Someone saved Someone saved my life tonight
[06:09.75] Someone saved Someone saved Someone saved my life tonight
[06:16.95] Someone saved Someone saved Someone saved my life tonight
[06:24.51] Someone saved Someone saved Someone saved my life tonight
