Safe (Lyrics)

[A heavy but simple quarter-note beat, over and over]

 

[A voice eases in, swinging around on the notes]

 

1

It wasn't something that I was a-used to

I've never done this before

But we've been talkin' for a while

And I just can't stop the smile

Because you're the one it's only there for

 

Your arms around me...

Always astound me...

 

Chorus [1 feeds directly into this]

Because you make me feel safe

I finally believe in faith

You make me feel warm like everything's alright

You make me feel warm

Like I'm sheltered from the storm

You make me feel aglow like I'm finally in the light

You make me feel sa-a-a-a-fe...

Sa-a-a-a-fe...

 

2

It wasn't something that I ever planned out

I've never done this before

But we've been dancing for a while

And I just can't stop the smile

Like a man at sea who's finally glimpsed the shore

 

Your arms around me...

Always astound me...

 

Chorus

Because you make me feel safe

I finally believe in faith

You make me feel warm like everything's alright

You make me feel warm

Like I'm sheltered from the storm

You make me feel aglow like I'm finally in the light

You make me feel sa-a-a-a-fe...

Sa-a-a-a-fe...

 

[Short instrumental]

 

3 [Much softer, but crescendo on last two lines]

It wasn't something that I was a-used to

I never knew this before...

And I want more...

And I want more.........

 

Chorus

Because you make me feel safe

I finally believe in faith

You make me feel warm like everything's alright

You make me feel warm

Like I'm sheltered from the storm

You make me feel aglow like I'm finally in the light

You make me feel sa-a-a-a-fe...

Sa-a-a-a-fe...

Sa-a-a-a-fe

Sa-a-a-a-fe...
