[Verse 1: Peter Cetera]
After he hurt you, you said you were leaving
You got up to walk out the door
The story he's telling you, you weren't believing
You've certainly heard it before

[Chorus 1: Peter Cetera]
And I can't stand it, you're feeling so sad
I can't take it, it's making me mad

[Chorus 2: Peter Cetera]
Say the word and I will rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you

[Verse 2: Peter Cetera]
I could be wrong, but unless I'm mistaken
It's only a matter of time
And I know you're giving him more than you've taken
You've come to the end of the line

[Chorus 1: Peter Cetera]
And I can't stand it, you're feeling so sad
I can't take it, it's making me mad

[Chorus 2: Peter Cetera]
Say the word and I will rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you
[Chorus 3: Peter Cetera]
Something missing in your life, tell you what I say
Blues are on the run and help is on the way
Something missing in your life, tell you what I'll do
Just like in a fairy tale, I'll rescue you
I'm gonna rescue you

[Chorus 1: Peter Cetera]
And I can't stand it, you're feeling so sad
I can't take it, it's making me mad

[Chorus 3: Peter Cetera]
Something missing in your life, tell you what I say
Blues are on the run and help is on the way
Something missing in your life, tell you what I'll do
Just like in a fairy tale, I'll rescue you
I'm gonna rescue you

[Chorus 2: Peter Cetera]
Say the word and I will rescue you
(Say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you
