[Verse 1]
He kicked you out by the side of the road
All alone in the dead of the night
You were scared and chilled to the bone
When I saw you in my headlights
Rain pouring down, you soaked to the skin
Pleading with me to take you in
Couldn't drive on and leave you alone
In there in the dead of the night
Alone in the dead of the night
[Verse 2]
I took you home and dried your clothes
Found out about the shape you were in
Heard your story and all your worry
You could never go back again
I held you close all through the night
And everything changed with the morning light
(I) didn't think we would both be alone
If I'd taken that other road home
If I'd taken that other road home
[Chorus]
But I listen to that silent voice
Stopping me cold like I had no choice
Doing what I could for someone else
Didn't know I was saving myself
Didn't know I was saving myself
[Verse 3]
What was the reason, what was the chance
I'd find my redemption in you
So much more than circumstance
I knew what I had to do
[Chorus]
When I listen...
Didn't know I was saving myself
