"Safe In The World" lyrics

"Safe In The World"

I didn't feel good at all
But you came to cushion my heartache
And I could laugh once more
And laugh we did, oh yeah, we laughed a lot
And I felt safe in the world knowing you were there

It shouldn't have last that long
'Cause I was writing records with all my old love songs
When they closed the borders you couldn't come
Still I felt safe in the world knowing you were there

If this felt strange, I just added it to the list of things I couldn't explain
Must've felt good, I didn't stop
I just didn't know what this was
No language for my love
No language for my love

And when I got home that year
I took a black cab from the station
The streets were dressed in fear
A world I hadn't seen but heard was here
Still I felt safe in the world knowing you were there

Meet me in the park
And we'll sit on walls and talk until the day gets dark
And the red lights of our bikes mirrored my heart
Never really sure of what is safe but here we are
Here we are

If this felt strange, I just added it to the list of things I couldn't explain
Must've felt good, I didn't stop
I just didn't know what this was
No language for my love
No language for my love
No language for my love
No language for my love
