She Doesn't Need Saving

telling her what we'd do
if they put us in her position
if we were stood in her shoes
But destiny's already written
and she has to learn to survive
so leave her to make those decisons
and take back control of her life
She doesn't need saving
she's not given up yet
all she needs is our faith to replace her regret
and help her forget
So give her some time to grow stronger
and let her decide what to do
she's been through so many changes
and right now she's still confused
But when she's discovered the answers
she doesn't feel so afraid
she'll have the power of wisdom
and no-one can take that away
She doesn't need saving
she's not given up yet
all she needs is our faith to replace her regret
and help her forget
the past and the pain
and try to start over again
cos she knows
where she wants to go
so leave her alone
trust her to find her own way
She doesn't need saving she doesn't need
she's not given up yet
all she needs is our faith to replace her regret
She doesn't need saving she doesn't need
she's not given up yet
all she needs is our faith to replace her regret
and help her forget
She doesn't need saving
