Rescue
Suzanne Mondoux · 2 August 2020
I was standing on the edge of the cliff I heard a car driving singing out loud a rock n roll song I turned to follow the sound The car parked at the look out point Echoed the rock n roll song I stepped off the ledge
On that morning rock n roll rescued my soul I followed the music and there he was sitting behind the wheel in his fancy convertible He looked up at me and smiled I smiled back with a tear in my eye Turn up that radio was all I said He leaned over and said jump in I jumped into the rock n roll
He asked me what I was doing all the way out here Someone was killed here and I came to say goodbye I didn’t know I could be rescued Rescued by rock n roll driving by Until this moment I was someone else who thought had to die Nobody knows this but me
I walked a fine line between life and death in the light of single life Quiet and alone and unknown by many ‘Til I was rescued by this rock n roll song So fine the song I’ll keep a close watch now on this life of mind Never to be rescued again
In this rock n roll band the angels sing Rescued by the singing angels Rock n roll rescuing a single soul He asked me if I wanted to stay Lets go and crank up the radio
