Cover art for Save You lyrics by Matthew Perryman Jones

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.
