S.O.S
Ola Svensson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't you hear me
Crying out your name
And don't you leave me here
All alone
Against a hurricane
I'm trying every frequency
Just knowing there's a chance for us
Could save me from disaster
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm drowning and nobody else
But you can rescue me
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
Without you I'm a sinking ship
So save me from this sea
Of tears
Extreme emergency
Every breath I take could be the last of me
Your amazing grace
Is my only hope to stop this tragedy
Don't let me come apart when you
Could put me back together
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm drowning and nobody else
But you can rescue me
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
Without you I'm a sinking ship
So save me from this sea
And my breaking heart has learned a lesson
I'll live to prove it if you let me
Won't you let me
(Sending you an S. O. S.)
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
I'm drowning and nobody else
But you can rescue me
Sending you an S. O. S.
I'm sending you an S. O. S.
Without you I'm a sinking ship
So save me from this sea
Of tears
The song S.O.S by Ola Svensson is a cry for help from a broken hearted lover who is drowning in despair and needs their lover to rescue them before it's too late. The singer is trying to reach out to their lover through different means but there's no response. They are hoping that just the chance of their lover responding to the S.O.S call would be enough to save them from "disaster" and the "sea of tears" that they find themselves in.
The chorus of the song, with its repeated "I'm sending you an S.O.S", is powerful and highlights the desperation of the singer. The lyrics communicate the message that the only person who can save them from their pain is the one they are reaching out to. They are relying on their lover's "amazing grace" to be their "only hope" to stop the tragedy they are experiencing.
The song ends with a plea for their lover to not let their heart break apart when they (the lover) could put them (the singer) back together again. The song is a poignant reminder of the importance of communication and the devastating effects of feeling alone in a relationship.
