lyrics

Save Me, Save Me (Wake)
Help me, help me – they’re comin’ to get me
they always said that they wouldn’t forget me
and when they get me it’s anyone’s guess what they’ll do
help me, help me – they’re comin’ to get me
you always said that you wouldn’t let me
fall into their hands and I put my faith in you

I dreamed I was lyin’ on a blanket in the sand with you
totally intoxicated by my thoughts about what we would do …

Save me, save me – you’ve got to save me
just do something or I’ll go crazy
turn out the lights and kiss me before it’s too late
if you don’t save me I’ll burn in hell
you’re the only one who can break this spell
I don’t understand what I did to deserve this fate

I dreamed I was ridin’ in a bus across the Great Divide
you touched my hand and I suddenly felt so alive

Hide me, hide me – you’ve got to hide me
there’s people out there who can’t abide me
take me upstairs and hide me under the bed
I’m trusting you not to let me down
please don’t let on I’ve been around
if they discover I’m here I’m as good as dead

Jim Wake and Sleepwalker, like the musical traditions in blues, rock ’n’ roll, and rhythm blues from which the band draws inspiration, is an experience defying easy description. It is music that swings, drives, bumps and grinds, moans and groans, screams and shouts, and then steps back and turns introspective, plaintive, or nostalgic. ... more
