Save Me Lyrics

I must leave you tonight my love
Remain so faithfully
I must go off to war my dear
The kings await me
I will go so far away
I will always love you, but you knew

I regret to tell you
Your man has died tonight
He was a brave man
He fought a brave fight
He was killed, by the other side
He was killed, by the other men's knives
She said save me
Save me

Why must you love this man?
He is your brother
This is easy to understand my son
There is no other
I cannot pretend to love this man
Like my father
I cannot pretend
Mother there is no other

She said save me
Save me

When there is no truth, let's end this lie tonight
This is easy to understand, without your best fight
But I see a new sun rising in the east
But I see a new sun rising in the east

She said save me
Save me
She said Save me
Save YOU!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is about how stupid war is. The first three verses outline a man going to war and dying and his wife and family suffering from their loss. The last verse talks about ending the lies that make war possible and with a new sun rising in the east symbolising the start of a new day for peace.

This is my favorite song by Tea Party. The chorus is awesome. A pretty straight forward song. The first part is obviously about a love going to war, then later in the song it is about the family of a man going to war and how they feel.
