Hey you
The one with the laughing eyes
You, the one with the haunting stare

Well you
You have the power to hypnotize
I should'a known better
I should beware

'Cause I have followed you
Done everything for you
But you just won't look my way
So come on baby and

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one or the other babe
Save me
It's time for somebody else
Save me
Well, you, you could own the universe
Think about it and you'll realize
You, you got to believe me
And take my word

Look at me
It's written in my eyes
'Cause I have followed you
Done everything for you
But you just won't look my way
So come on baby and

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one or the other babe
Save me
I guess it's time for somebody else

Save me
I can't wait any longer
For paradise
I told you once
I'm not gonna tell you twice
So come on baby and

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one or the other babe
Save me
I guess it's time for somebody else

Save me
Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one or the other
Save me
I guess it's time for somebody else

Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me

Fleetwood Mac

Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band formed in 1967 in London. Due to numerous line-up changes, the only original member present in the band is its eponymous drummer, Mick Fleetwood. Despite band founder Peter Green naming the group by combining the surnames of two of his former bandmates (Fleetwood, McVie) from John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, bassist John McVie played neither on their first single nor at their first concerts. The keyboardist, Christine McVie, who joined the band in 1970 while married to John McVie, appeared on all but two albums, either as a member or as a session musician. She also supplied the artwork for the album Kiln House. more »
