Lyrics
[Verse 1] When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs Prima Donna, lord, you really shoulda been there Sittin' like a princess perched in her electric chair And it's one more beer, and I don't hear you anymore We've all gone crazy lately My friend's out there, rollin' 'round the basement floor (Ooh) [Chorus] And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear (sugar bear) You almost had your hooks in me, didn't you, dear? You nearly had me roped and tied Altar-bound, hypnotized, sweet freedom whispered in my ear You're a butterfly, and butterflies are free to fly Fly away, high away, bye-bye (Ooh) [Piano riff] [Verse 2] I never realized the passin' hours of evening showers A slip noose hangin' in my darkest dreams I'm strangled by your haunted social scene Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen It's four o'clock in the morning, damn it! Listen to me good I'm sleepin' with myself tonight Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive (Oh!) [Chorus] Someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear (Sugar bear, sugar bear) You almost had your hooks in me, didn't you, dear? You nearly had me roped and tied Altar-bound, hypnotized, sweet freedom whispered in my ear You're a butterfly, and butterflies are free to fly Fly away, high away, bye-bye (Ooh) [Piano riff] [Bridge] And I would've walked head-on into the deep end of the river Clingin' to your stocks and bonds Payin' your H.P. demands forever They're comin' in the mornin' with a truck to take me home Someone saved my life tonight Someone saved my life tonight Someone saved my life tonight Someone saved my life tonight Someone saved my life tonight So save your strength, and run the field you play alone [Chorus] Someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear (Sugar bear, sugar bear, sugar bear) You almost had your hooks in me, didn't you, dear? You nearly had me roped and tied Altar-bound, hypnotized, sweet freedom whispered in my ear You're a butterfly, and butterflies are free to fly Fly away, high away, bye-bye [Outro] Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight) Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight) Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight) Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight) Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight) Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight) Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight (Someone saved my life tonight)
