You Saved My Life Songtext
von Patti LaBelle

Yeah,
You know I was thinkin, before I met you
I was on a life of, ugh life of destruction
But I′m a better man now.
I just wanna tell you baby,

Chorus:
Shorty you saved my life
Don't run the streets as much
Cuz I′d rather feel your touch
Shorty you saved my life
Aint sellin dope no more,
Cuz your worth living for
You saved my life


Gotta lot a love, for ya girl
Cuz you turned me around
6 feet under ground, that's where I was headed girl
On da block, with the cops
Tryin not to get locked up
Tryin not to get caught up
Tryin not to get shot up

Girl ya came, in my life
And things started goin right
I started livin right
At ya house every night

You were sent from above
Ya taught me how to trust
Ya taught me how to love
No more bein thug

Chorus:
Shorty you saved my life
Don't run the streets as much,
Cuz I′d rather feel your touch
Shorty you saved my life
Aint sellin dope no more,
Cuz your worth living for
You saved my life


Gotta lot a love for ya girl
Cuz you keep it real like me
You pack a still like me
I′m hopin you feel like me

Cuz on a scale of one to ten
You get eleven girl
I'm in heaven girl
When is our wedding girl

That′s how it was in the day
I'm no longer now
No more bein wild
Help me cuz that ___aaooowww
Cuzz with my time
I′d rather raise our child
I'd rather make you smile
I′d rather change my self

Chorus:
Shorty you saved my life
Don't run the streets as much
Cuz I'd rather feel your touch
Shorty you saved my life
Aint sellin dope no more,
Cuz your worth living for
You saved my life

I coulda been doin drugs
I coulda been in hand cuffs
Couldve been on my back with no time to relax
I coulda caught a murda charge
Spend life behind bars
Although I′ve retired I see us goin far

(I said I coulda been)coulda been doin drugs
(I coulda been in baby) coulda been in hand cuffs
(Oohhh) coulda been on my back with no time to relax (yayaya)
Coulda caught a murda charge
Spend life behind bars
(Shawty)althouh I′ve retired I see us goin far

Chorus:
Shorty you saved my life (ya uh)
Don't run the streets as much (as much)
Cuz I′d rather feel your touch (your touch)
Shorty you saved my life
Aint sellin dope no more, (no more)
Cuz your worth living for
You saved my life
