(M Liffengren/P. Liffengren) Standing near the waters' shore - I can see to the other side Waves are tossing back & forth - A rock's in the midst of the tide Standing strong all by itself - The rock's sticking out of the sea If I cross I can rest there - The rock will always protect me I get out - on the waters - My eyes are focused on the rock I look around - at the waves - I'm starting to sink, I need help Save me I'm drowning - I'm a sinking man Save me I'm dying - Someone take my hand Save me I'm drowning - I'm a sinking man I closed my eyes as I swam I prayed and hoped I wouldn't die A wave caught me and tossed me I knew this was the end of my life Oh I thought that I was dreaming Because when I opened my eyes I landed on the rock safely To my amazement and surprise Save me I was sinking - Save me I was dying Save me, Save me - The rock saved my life Save me I was sinking - Save me I was dying
