[Verse 1]
She had to run away
Nobody loved her, nobody understood
What she wanted to be
Backed up the things that she'd finally be free
Moved to Hollywood
Tried to become everything she thought she could
Her time is slipping away
[Pre-Chorus]
She's twenty-five and dying
She's giving up on trying
She's got nobody, nobody to love her
[Chorus]
The one who can save you
Is with you every day
Just ask and he'll tell you
He'll never walk away
[Verse 2]
He was a burden child
A popular kid with a reason to smile
When he was twenty-three
Unemployed, needed cash flow and family
Went to the corner store
Gun to the head, now there's blood on the floor
His time is ticking away
[Pre-Chorus]
He's twenty-three and wishing
He wasn't locked in prison
His wife and son are all alone in this cruel world
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ah-ah-ah-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
The one who can save you
Is with you every day
Just ask and he'll tell you
He'll never walk away
The one who can save you
Is with you every day
Just ask and he'll tell you
He'll never walk away, walk away, hope and pray
[Outro]
If I could save the world
If I could save the world
I would save the world
