Say It

(album: Abracadabra - 1991)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
I was lost in paradise, I was washed ashore
I was praying someone would walk right through that door
I was hung in effigy, I was flayed alive
I was lost and lonely and struggling to survive

Say that you need me, say that you care
Say you believe in me
(Say it, say it, say it)
And I'll be there, oh yeah

I was baked Alaska, burning deep inside
I was wandering 'round this earth, trying to find a place to hide
I was Mr. Heartache, I was ripped and torn
I was hardly living until you came along

Say that you need me, say that you care
Say you believe in me
(Say it, say it, say it)
And I'll be there, oh yeah

Come on and say it
Whisper in my ear, come on, come on

A ripple of uncertainty became a tide of change
That wave became an ocean, now you're out of range
Seen heaven in a rainbow, many splendid things
None compare, none come close, you're my everything

Say that you need me, say that you care
Say you believe in me
(Say it, mean it, say it and mean it)
(Say it and mean it, say it)
And I'll be there, oh yeah
