Save Me
Yearning for Rescue: The Undertones' 'Save Me' Echoes Heartfelt Desperation
Lyrics
Now I have cried a river since the day you said goodbye
Expressing intense sorrow and continuous crying since the breakup
And if you don't come back I'm going to drown in the tears I cry
Fearing being overwhelmed by the tears if the person doesn't return
Save me - save me
Pleading to be rescued or helped
Save me - save me
Repeating the plea for assistance
Come on and save me
Urgently asking for salvation or aid
I need you so
Expressing a strong need for the person to return
Like falling off a mountain slope I'm sinking down so fast
Feeling a rapid decline similar to falling from a height
Clinging to a twig of hope that this separation won't last
Clutching onto a small hope that the separation won't be permanent
Save me - save me
Reiterating the plea for rescue
oh why don't you save me
Questioning why the help or rescue isn't being extended
Its up to you to save me
Stating that the responsibility to rescue lies with the person
I need you so
Reaffirming the strong need for the person to return
Without you here beside me I'm only half alive
Feeling incomplete and diminished without the person
Stay away from me any longer and I can't survive
Expressing an inability to continue living without the person
save me
Repeating the plea for rescue
