Evelette
Saviour Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thinking about all the things I would have said
Is suffocating
But I'll savor in the moments we shared
For the mean time, not the first time
Let us rewind the clock to the days we spent just wasting
Oh god, you feel so alive
Let us rewind the clock to the days we spent just wasting
In our hearts you live on
Always like an angel
Looking over me, I feel your head rest on my shoulder
On and on
Always like an angel
And I cannot move on, these days are not the same without you
On and on
And things are not so fine; I seem to lose my way without you
The images I've made are slowly fading away
And things are not so fine; I seem to lose my way without you
On my own
I feel your head rest on my shoulder
I'll hold on
I am on my knees
And if I make it out alive
You'll be there beside me
With all the confidence in my heart
I never will let you go
With all the confidence in my heart
You will live on
Pick me up from all of my heartache
I never will let you go




I know with every step I take
You'll be right there beside me
