You'll Be Safe Here

Rivermaya
album: You'll Be Safe Here (2005)

Nobody knows
Just why we're here
Could it be fate
Or random circumstance
At the right place
At the right time
Two roads intertwine

And if the universe conspired
To meld our lives
To make us
Fuel and fire
Then know
Where ever you will be
So too shall I be

Chorus:
Close your eyes
Dry your tears
'Coz when nothing seems clear
You'll be safe here

From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Weary heart
You'll be safe here

Remember how we laughed
Until we cried
At the most stupid things
Like we were so high
But love was all that we were on
We belong

And though the world would
Never understand
This unlikely union
And why it still stands
Someday we will be set free.
Pray and believe

Chorus:

When the light disappears
And when this world's insincere
You'll be safe here
When nobody hears you scream
I'll scream with you
You'll be safe here

Save your eyes
From your tears
When everything's unclear
You'll be safe here

From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Wounded heart

When the light disappears
And when this world's insincere
You'll be safe here

When nobody hears you scream
I'll scream with you
You'll be safe here

In my arms
Through the long cold night
Sleep tight
You'll be safe here

When no one understands
I'll believe
You'll be safe,
You'll be safe
You'll be safe here
Put your heart in my hands
You'll be safe here

Night All Alone

A love song sung for a million people…
…will not easily touch me.
The fundamental standards for romance in these streets are
"Easy love! Easy come! Easy go!"

Rather than living in a dream-world, looking toward the future makes more sense to me.
My car doesn’t seem like it’ll be flying through the sky for a while, anyway.
And so, I get on the subway again today.
And I pass through the city with a bunch of strangers.

That’s why I’m
lonely, lonely. It’s so painful.
In nights that seem to be falling apart.
Lonely, lonely, you are the only one…
…who was able to pierce my heart with your original love

She’s the only one who turns me on sexually.
I want to forget…
Love me, love me. Love my weak heart strongly.
Kiss me, kiss me in this frustrating night all alone.

My! What clear sound you can talk with through this cell phone!
Is that enough for you? The electrical currents can reach anywhere, but something’s missing…And so, just so my timing isn’t off…
…I’m forcing a smile on my face again today.

That’s why I’m
Lonely, lonely. A sweet, sweet…
…melody intoxicates me.
Lonely, lonely with sarcastic lips…
…I say I’m feeling fine.
Lonely, lonely, I’m trying as hard as I can
To pretend I don’t need you.
In the end, you ignore me
And the tears flow down my cheeks.

Memories of my time with you is the only thing that turns me on sexually
Against my will, I feel it…
Love me, love me. Love my weak heart strongly.
Kiss me, kiss me in this frustrating night alone.

That’s why I’m
lonely, lonely. It’s so painful.
In nights that seem to be falling apart.
Lonely, lonely, you are the only one…
…who was able to pierce my heart with your original love
Lonely, lonely, I’m dying to be with you.
In these days that seem to be freezing me.
What I couldn’t communicate to you verbally,
I didn’t hold back physically.

She’s the only one who turns me on sexually.
I want to forget…
Love me, love me. Love my weak heart strongly.
Kiss me, kiss me in this frustrating night all alone.

The Last Time

The first time I fell in love was long ago.
I didn't know how to give my love at all.
The next time I settled for what felt so close.
But without romance, you're never gonna fall.
After everything I've learned;
Now it's finally my turn.
This is the last time I'll fall... in love.
The first time we walked under that starry sky,
there was a moment when everything was clear.
I didn't need to ask or even wonder why, because each question is answered when your near.
and I'm wise enough to know when a miracle unfolds, this is the last time i'll fall in love.
Now don't hold back, just let me know.
Could i be moving much too fast or way too slow.
'Cause all of my life, I've waited for this day.
To find that once in a lifetime, this is it, I'll never be the same.
You'll never know what it's taken me to say these words.
And now that I've said them, they could never be enough.
As far as I can see, there's only you and only me.
This is the last time I'll fall in love.
Last time i'll fall in love.
The last time i'll fall... in love.
