My Safe Space
Embracing Love's Shelter: My Safe Space by Shawn Hart
Lyrics
Another empty evening you're on the back porch alone
Reflecting on a lonely evening spent on the back porch.
Working hard to understand from both ends of the phone
Working hard to comprehend a conversation over the phone.
It's nights like these the autumn breeze reminds us where we've been
Nights like these evoke memories, especially with the autumn breeze.
It blows around some memories of a life we hadn't live
The breeze carries memories of a life not yet experienced.
Can you imagine a time when you could not make me smile
Recalling a time when the other person had a profound impact on happiness.
Just hold me close all my fears up and melt away
Being held close erases fears, providing comfort.
I now can see how everyday will never be enough
Realization that each day is insufficient; a desire for more.
I swear you are you'll always be my safe space
A declaration that the person is a constant source of security.
Lets talk about this moment and the allure of your stunning face
Focusing on the present moment and the attractiveness of the partner's face.
I want to lay in bed with you holding hands while we wear away
Expressing a desire to share intimate moments and grow old together.
It seems to me that love got lost on it's way to find you and me
Suggesting that love may have faced challenges in reaching them.
But every road leads somewhere and comes home eventually
Believing that every path in love has a destination, a hopeful perspective.
Can you imagine a time when you could not make me smile
Reiteration of the profound impact the other person has on happiness.
Just hold me close all my fears up and melt away
Emphasizing the comforting effect of being close and secure.
I now can see how everyday will never be enough
Recognition that everyday experiences are insufficient, seeking more.
I swear you are you'll always be my safe space
Reaffirming the other person as a constant and reliable sanctuary.
Unfamiliar territory stokes the burning fire all night
Navigating through unfamiliar territory together, deepening the connection.
Another day in paradise with you by my side
Describing the partner as a source of paradise in daily life.
Can you imagine a time when you could not make me smile
Recollection of a time when the partner's influence was transformative.
Just hold me close all my fears up and melt away
Reiterating the comforting and fear-melting impact of closeness.
I now can see how everyday will never be enough
Acknowledging that everyday experiences will always fall short.
I swear you are you'll always be my safe space
Swearing that the person will forever be a safe and secure space.
