Saving Grace
Pete Murray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got you, you know I heard you say
You blossomed into a beautiful day
Your sunlight keeps shining in my face
I would see it even in deep out of space

And all in time, I know
I will see you again and again
And every night I'm going to hold you
And hold you and then

Before the light I will rescue
And then we'll begin to start it all over again

I love it and how you clear my way
Guide me into a brand new day
In your eyes you know I've found my place
You see you - you are my saving grace

And all in time
I going to see you again and again
And every night I'm going
To hold you and hold you and then

Before the light I will rescue
And then we'll begin to start it all over again

Don't ever want to miss you
Don't ever want to forget you
The way you are today

And all in time
I'm going see you again and again
And every night I'm going
To hold you and hold you and then





Before the light I will rescue
And then we'll begin to start it all over again

Overall Meaning

In "Saving Grace," Pete Murray sings about the love he has for someone who has brought light into his life and cleared his path. The opening verse indicates that he has heard the person say something about blossoming into a beautiful day - this could be interpreted in different ways, but it seems that the person might have experienced some personal growth or transformation. The symbolism of sunlight shining in his face suggests that their presence has a positive impact on him and that he would still feel it even if he were in outer space. He then expresses the desire to see this person again and again, and to hold them every night. The pre-chorus and chorus repeat this sentiment, with the addition of the phrase "saving grace" - the person he loves is the one who has saved him, who has been the source of his hope and salvation.


The second verse reinforces the idea that this person has helped Murray find his place and guided him into a new day. There is a sense of mutual admiration and satisfaction in the lines "you see you - you are my saving grace," indicating that the love is reciprocal. The final pre-chorus and chorus repeat the earlier lines, with the added element of not wanting to forget or miss the person. Murray seems to be aware that this love is precious and he wants to hold onto it.
