S.O.S. Lyrics

Where are those happy days? They seem so hard to find
I try to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love? I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling
Can't you hear me, S.O.S.?
The love you gave me
Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.

When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you're gone, though I try, how can I carry on?

You seemed so far away, though you were standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died, I fear
I really tried to make it up, I wish I understood
What happened to our love? It used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling
Can't you hear me, S.O.S.?
The love you gave me
Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.

When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you're gone, though I try, how can I carry on?

So when you're near me, darling
Can't you hear me, S.O.S.?
And the love you gave me
Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.

When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you're gone, though I try, how can I carry on?

When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you're gone, though I try, how can I carry on?

as a metal head i have to say...... i love ABBA and i don't give a FUCK what anyone thinks when they walk in and my stereo goes from Dead Skin Mask to Take a Chance, i love those swedish girls ^_^ S.O.S. is perhaps my favorite ABBA song. i like all the different feelins i get from each part, its dark and melancholy-ish then its a hopeful but sad tone like "are you listening, we could fix this" cuz "when your gone how could i even try to go on." but thats just what i get from it.

This song brings back such sad memories of singing it to someone and really meaning it... SOS shows very well how you clinge onto a relationship till the last second, till it can't be saved anymore, where the end seems so awful, yet it's painfully close and you're well aware of it. I still love the song, as painful as it may be.
