Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I come for you, you save me
Shambles all around us
In silence we are vibing
Sway, Sway with me
Sway
Forget about everything
We're on the floor now
When we talk, we only start a fight
No words, keep going, left, right
Too many things on your mind
Let go and keep the motion
Sway, Sway with me
Sway
Forget about everything
We're on the floor now
Sway with me
Take me away
Maybe this won't ever stop
Come closer to me
Will you stay and sway
Take me away
Maybe this won't ever stop
Come closer to me
Will you stay and sway
Sway, Sway with me, yeah
Sway
Forget about everything
Everything
We're on the floor now
We're on the floor now
We're on the floor now
We're on the floor now
Sway, Sway
The lyrics of Hollis's song "Sway" is all about finding comfort and solace with someone special amidst the chaos and noise that surrounds us. The opening lines of the song, "Haven't been there for you lately, when I come for you, you save me" reflects on the idea that both parties in the relationship need each other to get through tough times.
The post-chorus that says "Sway with me, forget about everything, we're on the floor now, Sway with me" could be interpreted as an invitation to escape reality with someone and find peace through movement and music. The line "when we talk, we only start a fight" implies that conversation is not the answer to their problems, but rather, finding release through physical expression and dancing.
The repeated lines "Take me away, maybe this won't ever stop, come closer to me, will you stay and sway" portrays a longing for the moment to never end and a desire for the companionship of the other person. Overall, "Sway" is a song that talks about finding comfort and stability by letting go of the worries and dancing with someone special.

Haven't been there for you lately
I know I haven't been there for you like I should have been
When I come for you, you save me
But whenever I need you, you're always there to save me
Shambles all around us
Our lives are a mess right now
In silence we are vibing
But when we're together, even in silence, we have a connection
Sway, Sway with me
Let's forget about everything else and just let ourselves move to the music
Sway
Forget about everything
Let's push aside our problems and just live in the moment
We're on the floor now
We're dancing together
Sway with me
Just let yourself go and move with me
When we talk, we only start a fight
We can't seem to communicate without getting into an argument
No words, keep going, left, right
So let's just stop talking and focus on moving together
Too many things on your mind
I can tell you're stressed and overwhelmed
Let go and keep the motion
But right now, let's just forget about all of that and keep dancing
Take me away
Let's use this moment to escape from our problems
Maybe this won't ever stop
Maybe life won't get any easier, but at least we have this
Come closer to me

Will you stay and sway
Will you stay here with me and just dance?
Sway, Sway with me, yeah
Let's keep moving together and enjoying this moment
Sway
Forget about everything
Our problems can wait, for now let's just enjoy this dance
Everything
Every single worry we have can wait for this moment
We're on the floor now
All that matters right now is that we're together and moving
We're on the floor now
We're on the floor now
We're on the floor now
Sway, Sway
