The Rescues
If It Were Not for You
[Verse 1]
If it were not for you
I'd be in beggars' rags
Slowly going mad
On the street, on the street
If it were not for you
I'd have only regrets
Lost chances and bets
Bare feet on the street

[Chorus]
I would not be
I would not be
I would not be
If it were not for you

[Verse 2]
If it were not for you
I'm a thief on the run
Vampire in the sun
A stone in the sea
If it were not for you
I would give up right now
Take my last bow
Just a show anyway
[Chorus]
I would not be
I would not be
I would not be
If it were not for you

[Bridge]
A felon
A thief
You are the water
[?]
A felon
A thief
You are the water
Oh

[Outro]
If it were not for you
I would not be
I would not be
I would not be
If it were not for you
