The Safest Place
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tonight can be the safest place to fall in love again
Tell me that I can make the same mistakes
in this Garden State you know I'll mess it up again
I can write a thousand times, "I swear to God, you'll be all right"
if Tonight's the night I'll fall in love again.
If I could say the words
and then I'd hope to mean it.
I know the way it works
I just wont believe it
I can't find a reason to believe in you
Know that if you wake up, you missed out, it's over, I found out.
So get lost, it's no surprise, I need you bad.
Tonight can be the safest place to fall in love again
Tell me that I can make the same mistakes
in this Garden State you know I'll mess it up again
I can write a thousand times, "I swear to God, you'll be all right"
if Tonight's the night I'll fall in love again.
Oh the way hurts
I'd rather bleed out of these speakers
then put these lungs to work
I won't slow down, I'll keep on breathing
I can't be the one that saves you.
You can't find a reason why
This hearts a sinking ship
and we're all... (1, 2, 3 GO!)
Tonight can be the safest place to fall in love again
Tell me that I can make the same mistakes
in this Garden State you know I'll mess it up again
I can write a thousand times, "I swear to God, you'll be all right"
if Tonight's the night I'll fall in love again.
and If I stop breathing and my hearts on the ground
would you keep on breathing now?
