My Safe Place

Will you take a chance on damaged goods?
Do you love me just because you think you should?
I never was good at saying what I meant
Or picking up on vibes that you said you sent

So give yourself a break and give me one too
We're not among the lucky and chosen few
Who never have to work to maintain a friend?
And never hang around long enough for the end

You don't believe in miracles any more,
But I hope that you will always have an open door
When I need a little shelter from the daily storm
When I need a pair of eyes welcoming and warm

You're like a floodlight, like the sun's rays, like a moonbeam
Like ocean waves, like a blanket, like an embrace, you're my safe place
You're like a floodlight, like the sun's rays, like a moonbeam.
Like ocean waves, like a blanket, like an embrace, you're my safe place

Will you take a chance on making plans?
You know that we can do this if we think we can
As long as we can cut up all our ties to the past
And give ourselves entirely up to the task

I took a chance that everything would work out right
I thought about it every single day and night
And hopefully the struggles are behind us now
You know I love you every way that I know how

You're like a floodlight, like the sun's rays, like a moonbeam.
Like ocean waves, like a blanket, like an embrace, you're my safe place
