Lyrics
Save it
Expressing the idea of keeping something for later.
Save it for the day yeah
Emphasizing the importance of saving something for a specific day, possibly significant or transformative.
Save it for the day yeah
-The day you float away yeah
-Save it for the day yeah
Reiteration of the theme of saving for a particular day, which is associated with "floating away."
Save it for the day yeah
-Save it for the day yeah
-The day you float away yeah
-Candle on the table
Imagery of a candle on a table symbolizing the burning of joy, a plea to spare from heartache, and a call for honest communication.
Burnin all the joy away
-Save me some heartache
-Say what you gotta say
-The shadows hide your glances
Observation that despite attempts to hide emotions, the eyes reveal the truth, questioning a possible charade or pretense.
But I can read your eyes
-So what is this big charade?
-could it be that the sound of my voice really annoys you?
Speculation on whether the speaker's voice or heartbeat may be bothering the listener, causing a desire to "float away."
And makes you want to turn away
-Or could it be that the beat of my heart simply bores you?
-And makes you want to float away
-so claustrophobic.
Feeling trapped and suffocated, expressing frustration and a refusal to endure the situation any longer.
Can't get any air
-Wasted too much effort
-Wondering if you care.
-The candle's burned right out now.
-What are we waiting for?
-It's suffocatting
-won't take this anymore
-If you think that the sound of my voice really annoys you
Repetition of the theme, suggesting that if the speaker's presence is bothersome, the listener should choose to "float away."
And makes you want to turn away
-If you decide that the beat of my heart simply bores you
-then why don't you just float away?
-Just float away
Encouraging the idea of "floating away" as a solution, repeating the notion with variations.
Go and float away
-Just float away now
-Float away away
-Just float away now
-Go and float away
-Just float away now now now
-So if you think that the sound of my voice really annoys you
Pondering whether the listener is drawn to someone else, suggesting that if that's the case, they should "float away."
And makes you want to turn away
-If you decide that the arms of another's what calls you
-then why don't you float away?
-Float away
Final repetition of the invitation to "float away."
Just float away
-Just float away
-
