“CPR” is a metaphor for the man in her life’s love. His love is like air bringing her back to life because she’s been so alone, misunderstood and empty for so long that this new love trumps everything she’s ever known.
Many broken or even suicidal women can attest that they were “at the edge” befor...
[Verse 1]
Caught me at the right time baby (Oh)
I was at the edge, I was at the end
Made me feel like there is life worth living
Made me feel alive oh yeah
Time ain't on my side
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby where would I be without your love beside me? Oh
Baby where would I be? Probably gone, oh
[Refrain]
'Cause it feels like CPR
'Cause it feels like CPR
[Verse 2]
Mm, make me love again, ah
Notice I can’t stand you, oh
I don’t wanna talk about it
But no one understands me, no
You’re the only one I confide in- to darlin', ah
I don't even need to lie to you, babe
Patient lova oh my babe
How you fix my heart oh darling
Everything I’ve done you knew you known
I ain’t really never had a home
Damn I really hate feeling alone
Maybe you could make me feel at home, baby
[Refrain]
I hate feeling alone
I hate feeling alone, baby oh
I hate feeling alone
I hate feeling alone, baby
I need you here at home, baby
You’re the only one who knows
You’re the only one who knows
Where would I be, be?
