A Warm Safe Place

A WARM SAFE PLACE

I feel like an old guitar
Lookin’ for some brand new strings
I never thought I’d get this far
Without savin’ anything…for me
Do you still have that smile for me?
And could I stay here for a while?

I’m lookin’ for a warm safe place
To feel your hand on my face
Let the past roll off of my back
Baby, let’s not talk about that
I just want to make it through the night
Lock the door and hide away
I’m lookin’ for a warm safe place

I’m too young to pack it in
And too damn old to weather this wind
The rain, it just won’t stop it seems
And I’m too stubborn to quit these dreams
But with you, I can finally find some peace
With you, come here, lay down next to me

With you, there is shelter from the storm
With you, can I just stay here in your arms?

I’m lookin’ for a warm safe place
To feel your hand on my face
Let the past roll off of my back
I don’t wanna even talk about that
I just want to make it through the night
Lock the door and hide away; hide away…
I’m lookin’ for a warm safe place


This song is going to be my undoing if I hear it one more time in a weak moment. It it is with all that is going on in my life, I want to live this song. So close, but really how close?
