Saviour Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe come back some day
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Little birds, fly away
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Little birds, fly away
Fly away
Cause no one can
Do me like you do
If you leave I'm all alone
I'm not alone
If you leave I'm all alone
I'm not alone
If you leave I'm all alone
I'm not alone
Little birds, fly away
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Little birds, fly away
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Little birds, fly away
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Little birds, fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Again and again and again
Unless we ever cross paths again
And I [?] And I'm free
And I'm back to the start
Fly away
Again and again and again
Unless we ever cross paths again
Don't let me leave
And I'm back to the start
Cause nobody can
Do me like you do
If you leave I'm all alone
I'm not alone
If you leave I'm all alone
I'm not alone
Little birds, fly away
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
Little birds, fly away
Maybe come back someday
You fill my head with stories
(You fill my head with stories)
In "Little Birds," Saviour refers to a flock of birds that have filled her head with stories. The lyrics express her desire for these little birds to fly away and perhaps return someday, symbolizing a longing for new experiences while still retaining memories of the past. This theme of nostalgia and longing is further emphasized in the chorus, where she declares that "if you leave, I'm all alone" but later contradicts herself by asserting, "If you leave I'm all alone, I'm not alone." The repetition of these lines underscores the complexity of our emotional attachments and the ways in which the people and things that leave us can still linger in our minds.
The bridge of the song takes a more introspective tone, with Saviour acknowledging the possibility that she may never see these little birds again. She expresses the hope that she will one day be able to move forward without them, but also expresses a fear of what might happen if they do not return. This ambiguity reflects the uncertainty and anxiety that many of us feel when faced with the possibility of change and the unknown.
Overall, "Little Birds" is a heartfelt and poignant reflection on the nature of memory, loss, and the power that people and experiences have to shape our lives.
