Save You Lyrics

I wanna rock and roll
I wanna give my soul
I'm wanting to believe
I'm not too old

Don't wanna make it up
I Don't wanna let you down
I wanna fly away
But I'm stuck on the ground

Chorus
So help me decide
Help me to make up
Make up my mind
Wouldn't that save you
Wouldn't that save you
Wouldn't that save you

Watch it all go by
Was it really true
Is that what it was
Was that really you
I'm Looking back again
I'm tracing back a friend
You said it was a miss
Was it just in my head

Chorus 2x
And so help me decide
Help me to make up
Make up my mind
Wouldn't that save you
Wouldn't that save you
Wouldn't that save you

Somethings gotta break
You gotta swing the bat
Too many years have died
Why is that

Chorus 3x
And so help me decide
Help me to make up
Make up my mind
Oh wouldn't that save you
Wouldn't that save you
Wouldn't that save you

Wouldn't that save you
Save you
Save you

beautiful beautiful song

wow only one person, awesome song!

This is a wondeful song! It reminds me of the movie 'The Butterfly Effect' and the way Evan goes back in time to save everyone from the horrible things that are going to happen in their lives.

'Was that really you I'm Looking back again I'm tracing back a friend You said it was a miss Was it just in my head'

^that part also perfectly describes the end scene or rather the alternate happy ending in which Evan and Kayleigh walk past each other, then turn around and she asks 'do I know you'?

I think he actually sings "I'm tracing back the threads" not "tracing back a friend."

I think this is a break up song, more or less

Don't wanna make it up I Don't wanna let you down I wanna fly away But I'm stuck on the ground

He doesn't want to make their relationship up, but he doesn't want to hurt her. He wants to get away from it all, but he feels trapped.

So help me decide Help me to make up Make up my mind Wouldn't that save you Wouldn't that save you Wouldn't that save you

He wants her to decide, should he stay or go. He thinks if she makes the decision that it will save her from the loss.

Watch it all go by Was it really true Is that what it was Was that really you

Looking back on their relationship, was there really love there, or did he fall for what she pretended to be.

I'm looking back again I'm tracing back the threads You said it was a miss Was it just in my head

He looks back and sees the fabric of their relationship unraveling, but he's not sure if he did the right thing.

I always think of the scene from One Tree Hill where Brooke cries about Julian leaving. Such a sad scene

Cover art for Save You lyrics by Matthew Perryman Jones

For me, this is a story about someone that unsure about their relationship. He doesnt know about what to do, what decision to make. He wanted to reach more in life, but doesnt want to let her go as well. Those confusion makes him question everything about her, about their relationship. He couldn't choose hence he asked her to make make a decision for herself, to save her soul from getting hurt by him.
