Wiktoria will sing “Save Me” in the second deltävling of Melodifestivalen 2016 in Malmö. The song is written by three Melodifestivalen debutants, Jens Siverstedt, Jonas Wallin and Lauren Dyson, who have previously worked with Avicii and One Direction.
In her song, Wiktoria is telling her mom how she met a boy who stole her heart: “Oh and mama thought that I’d been blessed, got to tell you about this boy I met, he had sweet blue eyes the kind you can’t forget set my soul on fire and then he left”. In our recent interview Wiktoria told the song is “an uptempo song. with the focus very much on the lyrics and the story that the song brings”.
“Save Me” lyrics – Wiktoria
Dear Old Mama I got news for you
got a steeltoe heart and a bad tattoo
Sorry mama I ain’t been in touch
but I ran out of money gambled all my luck
Oh and mama thought that I’d been blessed
got to tell you about this boy I met
He had sweet blue eyes the kind you can’t forget
set my soul on fire and then he left
Save me
I can’t get enough of you
Save me
I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me
gonna hit the road tonight
before I lose my mind
Save me
I can’t get enough of you
Save me
I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me
gonna hit the road tonight
before I lose my mind
Dear old mama now the time has come
emptied out my pockets and my hope is gone
Cause he took my heart and turned it inside out
so I pack my bags and I’m leaving town
Save me
I can’t get enough of you
Save me
I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me
gonna hit the road tonight
before I lose my mind
Save me
I can’t get enough of you
Save me
I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me
gonna hit the road tonight
before I lose my mind
Oooho
Oooho
Oooho
Oh save me
Oooho
Oooho
Oooho
Oh save me
Dear Old Mama I got news for you
got a steeltoe heart and a bad tattoo
Sorry mama I ain’t been in touch
but I ran out of money gambled all my luck
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Ooo wow wow wow wow
Save me
I can’t get enough of you
Save me
I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me
gonna hit the road tonight
before I lose my mind
before I lose my mind
