so he rescued her from her small town
swept her off her feet away 
from things that made her frown
a valiant knight is what he thinks he's always been
but what he doesn't see is all this time
she's been rescuing him

and sometimes I view myself that way
as the one who's gonna whisk your
problems all away
and then when you leave I'll
self-destruct so fast
and I can definitely see
how its gonna be
you who rescues me

and as my grandmother crochets
I know she's gonna say
its you who rescued me
