SOS
Meryl Streep ft Pierce Brosnan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I tried 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
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 seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
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?
The lyrics of Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan's "SOS" speak of a love that has been lost, and the struggle to understand why it has happened. The singer questions what has happened to their love, which used to be so good and easy. They ask the person they love if they can hear them, reaching out for connection and understanding. They also express that the love given to them was everything, and without it, they feel lost and unable to carry on.
The lyrics capture the complexities of a relationship falling apart, with one person feeling disconnected and asking for help, while the other seems distant and unresponsive. It also highlights the power of love in a relationship, and the sense of loss that comes when it is gone. The repeated use of "S. O. S." adds to the sense of urgency and desperation in the song, as the singer tries to save their relationship.
Overall, "SOS" is a moving and powerful ballad that captures the pain of a relationship falling apart and the struggle to understand and cope with the loss of love.

@stinkyfart6994
this movie has taught me that there is an ABBA song for every situation.

@garten527
Ikr, it seems like the songs are based of the movies, usually writing a movie based of songs just makes the storyline messy but ABBA songs are just always perfect 👌
@Musicalboyo
Imagine having a serious argument with someone and then yelling
'SO WHEN YOU'RE NEAR ME DARLING CANT YOU HEAR ME SOS?!'
