[verse]
Now you can lay me in the backyard in the middle of July
Telephone stretched as far as it can go
Brown grass under terry cloth, radio on high
The cinder blocks will fade if my eyes stay closed

Me and the girls got plans in the works
To find someone to take us away
I never feel lonely when hope is running high that
Maybe tonight we’ll be saved

[verse]
I’m dreaming of a future that’s as long as it is bright
And warm as the sunshine on my face
Forget all about myself and find a better life
So I don’t feel so out of place

Me and the girls got plans in the works
To find the one to take us away
I barely feel lonely when hope is running high that
maybe tonight we’ll be saved

[bridge]
I need to get home (maybe tonight we’ll be saved)
Please take me home (maybe tonight we’ll be saved)

[verse]
The shadows are long and dusk is gettin’ on
Trees start to shiver and sway
Still fresh in my mind, the dream that this night
Could be the night we’ll be saved
