Lyrics Cass McCombs – You Saved My Life

In this spare room
We better see what we have and whom
An I.O.U. for the Same Thing
Only angels have wings

Here I stand, alive unto you

My fate’s mercy seat
Sought blood to gulp and flesh to eat
And I can’t blame you enough
But I’m indebted to your mercy and your love

Here I stand, alive unto you, alive unto you
Because you saved my life
Now I see there’s so much to lose so much to lose
Because you saved my life
My life, you saved my life

Darling, now I must live for you
One reprieve grants another until each world is born anew

Here I stand, alive unto you, alive unto you
Because you saved my life
Now I see there’s so much to lose, so much to lose
Because you saved my life

Here I stand, alive unto you, alive unto you
Because you saved my life
Now I see there’s so much to lose, so much to lose
Because you saved my life

Never understand, never can ignore
I’m rotten to the core, since 1994
Never understand, never can ignore
I’m rotten to the core, since 1994
