Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It feels like we've been out at
So back and forth how it seems
Whoa and web you want to talk
You say to me
That if it's mean to be , it will be
So crazy in this thing we call love
The love that we got that we just can't give up
I'm reaching out for you tell me

I'm over board and I need your love
Pull me up
I can't swim on my own
It's to much
Feels like I'm drowning without your love
So throw yourself out to me
My life saver
Life saver
Oh life saver
My life saver
Oh life saver oh wow
Never understand you when you say
Wanting me to meet you half way
Felt like I was doing my part
Get bringing your coming up short
Funny how things change
Cause now I see
So crazy in this love we call love
And now that we got it
We just can't give up
In reaching out for ya
Got me out here in the water and I
I'm overboard
And I new your love
Pull me up (pull me up)
I can't swim on my own
It's to much (it's to much)
Feel like I'm drowning without your love
So throw yourself out to me
My life saver

It's supposed to be some give an take I know
Your only talking and not given any more
So what will I do (so what will I do ?)
Cause I still love you(still love you baby)
You're the only one who can save me
I'm overboard
And I need your love
Pull me up (pull me up)

Feels like im drowning (I'm drowning baby I'm drowning) with out your love
So throw yourself out to me (can't swim)
My life saver

The Harsh Truth OUT THERE

Lyrics which should have been there:

So crazy is this thing we call life, and now that we got it, we just can`t give up.
i`m reaching out for you, got me out here in the water and I,
I`m overboard and I need your help,
GOD I can`t , can`t save my soul on my own, it`s too much, feel like i`m drowning here in my sins, without your saving grace.
So GOD i`m calling out for you, my lifes aviour (life saviour of life savour oh oh, yea)
I never understood when you say: You`d never leave me nor forsake me,
I was blind and deaf for many years, but now I see and hear just fine.
And now as i`m reaching out, i`m saying:
I`m overboard and I need your help,
GOD I can´t, can´t save my soul my own, it`s too much, feel like i`m drowning here, out of sea.
So pull my soul out of it, my life savour, (life savour 2x).

oh, it`s supposed to be some give and take, I know.
But i`m only taking and not giving anymore.
Oh, what would I do?, I do? Cause i`m still in sins, and YOUR the only one who can save me.

I`m overboard and I need your help,
GOD I can´t, can´t save my soul my own, it`s too much, feel like i`m drowning here, out of sea.
So pull my soul out of it, my life savour, (life savour 2x).

Sweet ! Uwielbiam tą piosenkę ... Zawsze się wzruszam jak ją słyszę :)

Hallelujah

Can somebody explain me why they don’t have official video for this song ? For me this song is so catchy 💕

Vanusa Semedo

I completely agree with you. I prefer this version a thousand times than the version with Miley. I like Miley but in this song I think Jessica Jarrell was better. Just my opinion.

Joao Escobar

2021 and I'm still here, proud of this guy :')

I think that Jessica Jarrell is the best at this song, since it was her that they chose to record the song with in the first place. Also shes the most natural to sing this song and her voice really suites. Unlike Miley that sings it with a really heavy country accent. But Miley is really good at singing when its her type of songs.
