Save The Day
S Gomez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kiss the moon goodbye
But don't close your eyes, your eyes
It's the end of the night
But the beginning of time, for you and I
I can't believe that my body is still moving, I
It makes me feel like we're doing something right

Baby, when the night starts slipping
When the night starts slipping
When the night starts slipping away
Boy, you keep my heartbeat skipping when you touch me
Even though the time is ticking away
Just tell me it's not over
And we'll never reach the end
Oh, when the night starts slipping away
Save the day

D-d-d-d-d-d-day, d-d-d-d-d-d-day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, oh
Save the day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, d-d-d-d-d-d-day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, oh
Save the day

Yeah, we're still wide awake
Got me losing my mind, my mind
No, it's never too late
Put your lips on mine
In the burning sunlight, I
I can't believe that my body is still moving, I
It makes me feel like we're doing something right

Baby, when the night starts slipping
When the night starts slipping
When the night starts slipping away
Boy, you keep my heartbeat skipping when you touch me
Even though the time is ticking away
Just tell me it's not over
And we'll never reach the end
Oh, when the night starts slipping away
Save the day

D-d-d-d-d-d-day, d-d-d-d-d-d-day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, oh
Save the day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, d-d-d-d-d-d-day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, oh
Save the day

Da-oh-ay-oh-ay-oh-ay, oh-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Da-oh-ay-oh-ay-oh-ay, oh-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Da-oh-ay-oh-ay-oh-ay-oh-ay-oh-ay-oh-ay

Kiss the moon goodbye
But don't close your eyes, eyes, eyes

Baby, when the night starts slipping
When the night starts slipping
When the night starts slipping away
Boy, you keep my heartbeat skipping when you touch me
Even though the time is ticking away
Just tell me it's not over
And we'll never reach the end
Oh, when the night starts slipping away
Save the day

D-d-d-d-d-d-day, d-d-d-d-d-d-day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, oh
Save the day
D-d-d-d-d-d-day, d-d-d-d-d-d-day




D-d-d-d-d-d-day, oh
Save the day

It's time to say goodbye to the night sky and move on to the next phase.


But don't close your eyes, your eyes
Even though it's time for something new, we should still be aware and mindful of everything around us.


It's the end of the night
The night has ended and a new day is about to begin.


But the beginning of time, for you and I
Even though the night has ended, it's the start of a new chapter or journey between two people.


I can't believe that my body is still moving
The feeling of being alive and energized is so strong that it's almost unbelievable.


It makes me feel like we're doing something right.

Baby when the night starts slipping
When the night drifts away and the darkness fades, almost like a metaphor for uncertain times in life.


Boy you got my heartbeat skipping

When you touch me even though, the time is ticking away
The moment is precious and special, but time is fleeting and slipping away in the background.


Just tell me it's not over

And we'll never reach the end

When the darkness fades and the light starts to peek over the horizon, make sure that the day is worth saving and savoring every moment.
