Like A Saviour Lyrics
Sleep with my shadow
Tryna find my faith in tomorrow
Tired of holdin' on to the memories
How I used to bleed for love (For love)
Got sick of the battle
Gave myself a heart made of metal
Calling out for someone to rescue me
Then you danced into my life (Oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Beautiful visions come to me
And they stay forever and ever
Electric feelings keep me dreamin'
I won't let go, oh-woah, oh-woah
[Chorus]
Spinnin' in your starlight
You got the power to ease my mind
You're leadin' me out of the dark
Like a saviour
Shinin' in my soul, oh-woah, oh-woah
[Post-Chorus]
Like a saviour
Out of the dark
Like a saviour
Out of the dark
Shot with your arrow
Suddenly, I feel I can let go
Of all the insecurities weighin' me down
Now I'm ready to drown in you, you
[Pre-Chorus]
Beautiful visions come to me
And they stay forever and ever
Electric feelings keep me dreamin'
I won't let go, oh-woah, oh-woah
[Chorus]
Spinnin' in your starlight
You got the power to ease my mind
You're leadin' me out of the dark
Like a saviour
Shinin' in my soul, oh-woah, oh-woah
Spinnin' in your starlight
You got the power to change my life
You're leadin' me out of the dark
Like a saviour (Like a saviour)
Shinin' in my soul, oh-woah, oh-woah
[Post-Chorus]
Like a saviour (Like a saviour)
Out of the dark (Out of the dark)
Like a saviour
Out of the dark (Oh, out of the dark)
Oh, spinnin' in your starlight
You got the power to ease my mind
You're leadin' me out of the dark
Like a saviour
Shinin' in my soul, oh-woah, oh-woah
[Chorus]
Spinnin' in your starlight
You got the power to change my life
You're leadin' me out of the dark (You're leadin' me out of the dark)
Like a saviour (Like a saviour)
Shinin' in my soul, oh-woah, oh-woah
[Post-Chorus]
Like a saviour (Like a saviour)
Out of the dark (Out of the dark)
Like a saviour (Like a saviour)
Out of the dark (Oh, out of the dark)

I was initially kind of torn over the flute-y bits on this song, but then realised it’s quite ‘Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!’ by ABBA. It’s a cool thing to be able to connect new stuff with an iconic tune. This song’s proof that the songs on this album can still go back to being songs, if you know what I mean. When you play them just from piano or guitar, you know it’s a song and not just my voice and lots of other things going on—which can disguise something as a song. I don’t know what came over me with the ‘spinning in your starlight’ lyric, but the idea that you could just be saved by one person is nice to think about.
