Safe From You
Ally Kerr
I thought that I’d learned my lesson
Not so long ago
For every high that grabs me
There comes a glancing blow
And now I know I was coasting
Burning in the sun
No thoughts of being unsettled
But deep down coming undone
And I know I can’t go on
Turning sadness into song
But it’s just what I do
To keep it safe from you
Yes I know I can’t go on
Turning sadness into song
But it’s just what I do
To keep it safe from you
My head is deep in the clouds now
I don’t want to leave
I dream of humid evenings
The drunken kiss of breeze
I’m sorry if I seem tired
But I’m losing touch
I’ll follow stars through sunset
Running into luck
And I know I can’t go on
Turning sadness into song
But it’s just what I do
To keep it safe from you
