Lucinda Williams - Rescue Lyrics
He can't rescue you
Can't pull the demons from your head
Can't lull you from your sleepy bed
He can't rescue you
From the powers that will be
The hours of insanity
He can't protect you
He can't change you
Change the summers of your beauty
The thunderstorms within your purity
He can't change you
He can't carry you
Every foe and every stranger
He can't carry you
He can't save you
From the plain and simple truth
The waning winters of your youth
He can't save you
He can't fix you
Your tears will always leave their mark
From fears that stay inside the dark
He can't fix you
What can he do
But tie some ribbons in your hair
And show you that he'll always care
Thats all he can do
Lala lala...

Lucinda Williams Rescue Comments
Beautiful ❤️
this breaks my heart, I can protect my woman from anything , rescue her from anything...….except herself her self loathing n her demons, id love to pull the pain out her like thread, I can see it, but all I can do I show her ill always care
I believe that she wrote this for her sister.
genial xx
I can rescue myself ty xxoo
She is one damned good poet...hits a nerve....haunting....love her story telling...love your gift, L.
Lucky to have seen her live in a small Dallas venue. She is truly one-of-a-kind. I've had this idea that Loretta Lynn would do a great job with Lucinda's tune Concrete & Barbed Wire. If anyone can get the word out - ask Loretta to consider it...!
Brothers & Sisters season 1 episode 18, Chad breaks up with Kevin and this song is playing in the background
so girls.... were you looking for a superman?
She wrote this for her sister who has a mental illness.
Amazing.
Reminds me,in a way, of Chris Isaaks"wicked Game". Same wonderful soul and Haunting feel to it. Love It1
Great song. I'd replace he with she, but great song.
