"You Save Me" is a song written by Brett James and Troy Verges and recorded by American country music artist Kenny Chesney.
Kevin John Coyne, reviewing the song for Country Universe, gave it a positive rating.
During the car ride, Chesney thinks back on his time with a girl he met and fell in love with in Mexico, and her attempts to persuade him not to go with them.
As Chesney starts to leave, he notices how the civilians in the areas are discreetly but uniformly retreating from the criminal spot or taking cover.
Chesney is anguished by the trap but can't help reflecting on his girlfriend and how she inadvertently saved him as the song begins.
