Lyrics for I Want To Save You as interpreted by ltb

I Want To Save You Lyrics
standing on the edge of morning
scent of sex and new found glory
playing as she's pulling back her hair
she drives away
she's feeling worthless
used again but nothing's different
she stayed the night
but knows he doesn't care

home by three
deafening quiet
the porch light's off
yes they forgot it
she'd cry herself to sleep
but she don't dare
then she wants to be a model
she wants to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful

i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you

dressed by dawn and out the door
no light
she memorized the floor
so she could leave without being detected
she works till three
it's uniform
she dreams that he'll come by the store
she prays for days
the boys mean she's protected
and she wants someone to see her
she needs to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful

i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you

and she won't sleep
she won't sleep
and she won't sleep
at all

i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you

Everyone keeps talking about how this song reminds them of their own lives and i think thats the great part about soco.......the emotions are SO intense, you can feel exactly what theyre feeling.

i too absolutely love this song, its one of my favorites. does anyone know the story behind why it was written?? just curious

Let me start off by saying the whole cd is awesome. I think this song is about a girl who is being used by some guy who is only in with this girl for sex (thats a give in). Andrew sings about how he desperately wants this girl to be his, and he see's something true, and pure in her. He knows she deserves than what she is being given. He wants to change all of that and form a bond with this girl.

Here's a girl who's being used by a guy who doesnt really care who she is, just the fact she'll have sex with him and doesnt see the real her. Obviously like said before, and she cries herself to sleep every night because of all the pain. Then heres this guy who see's her, and thinks she's beautiful on the inside and out and wants to save her from all the pain and he's saying that if he saves her then in some way she can save him also

I absolutely adore this song, mainly because it was playing in my car when I had my first kiss. Either way, it's one of my faves on LTTW.

Everytime I listen to this song...I find something new that makes me love it even more. Like most of the girls that have commented on it, I can relate to a lot of what he is saying. But I think what I like best about it is that even though this girl he is singing about is stuck in this life that she has become so accostomed to that it is more of a routine than anything else, and she feels empty, he just wants to help her break free and help her feel. And in turn all he asks for is her to save him back...probably because he just watches this routine of hers so much that he needs to be saved so he can feel something real and also help her feel something real too. It's such a great romantic idea; saving people that we care about. In a way we all need to be saved. Maybe one day somebody can come along and save me too.

I think the lyrics are pretty self explanatory. Pretty girl lets herself get used by a guy because of confidence issues. The good guy watches from afar, knowing that she's good inside and needs to be treated better. I WANT TO BE SAVED!!!! SAVE ME TOO!

As many have already said, this song, along with pretty much all SoCo songs, can be related to.

as corny as it sounds, we're all beautiful, and well, sometimes we need to fucking hear it.

i think these guys have amazing insight on how girls feel in most relationships...its so easy to find guys who will sleep with you, but very hard to find ones who truly care...

i can totally relate to this song...its all about being a girl who is going through those awkward teenage years and dealing with low self worth and questioning yourself....feeling small against the world....wanting so much but not knowing how to get it...yet

this song really hit mewhen i first heard it because it really reminded me of something i went through.

i met this girl and when i looked into her eyes, i just got this feeling that she had some big terrible secrets. it was like something bad happened to her or was about to happen to her. and i just got this idea in my head that i wanted to protect her from anything bad. i got this idea in my head that we could be together and we could protect each other and she wouldn't have to do anything she didn't want to. however, things didn't really work out as i thought they would and we both ended up walking away. i guess it's hard when things don't work out like you hoped they would. and i guess the only thing you can do is hope that someday, somehow things will turns out okay.

drive thru records is amazing. this song, to me, is about a girl, just an average girl on the outside. but she has self esteem issues. and she just wants someone to love her for who she is...but like lostindreams said, it doesnt always work out that way unfortunately..

Should have commented a long time ago... but I feel exactly like this girl in the song and so in that way I can relate to it. Every time I hear it I just wonder... when am I gonna get "saved?"
