I Picked You Up (version 2)
© Juliana Hatfield
there's nothing worse than a sad man alone
who came from nothing and says he's done
a hotel is just a temporary home
go out into the light now
I picked you up cause maybe I'm what you need
you didn't know it but you were saving me too
let's make some music and talk everything through
I picked you up because I needed you
you fell in with a guy and a girl
over coffee your story made her cry
you stopped looking you stopped hoping you stopped sleeping very
well
but don't say you didn't try
I picked you up cause baby I'm what you need
maybe you didn't know it but you were saving me too
let's make some music and talk everything through
I picked you up because I needed you
you walked out the door and down the street
and you fell on your phone and I was suddenly there
out of the blue and into the red I saw your face
and I knew it
I picked you up cause maybe I'm what you need
you didn't know it but you were saving me too
let's make some music and talk everything through
I picked you up because I needed you
I know who you are
cause I know who I am
and my friend I'm taking you home with me where you can finally
sleep
I picked you up cause baby I'm what you need
maybe you didn't know it but you were saving me too
let's make some music and talk everything through
I picked you up because I needed you
