I Tried to Stay Safe

After my last I swore I’d never feel the same

My mind was made up I thought it’d never change

I’d stay single for a while but you walked in

(But you walked into my life)

It’s nice that with everything that’s gone wrong

I can finally write a love song

Setting a record with a brand new tone

You’re love and kisses just bring me home

From the words that you say to the looks that you give

You helped me find my new reason live

I swear I won’t be the one to let you go

I just thought that I’d let you know

I haven’t felt this way in a while

(Or really at all)

You brought back my childish smile

(With actions small)

I never thought I’d find someone like you

I tried to stay safe but what could I do?

I thought I knew what love was but then you changed

It’s learning something over that feels so strange

I swore I couldn’t feel it but I never did

(But I guess I never did)

At the start I was lost inside my head

I lost when I thought I was ahead

Was buried down but you dug me back up

Got hung up on you like I was stuck

From the words that you say to the looks that you give

You helped me find my new reason live

I swear I won’t be the one to let you go

I just thought that I’d let you know

I haven’t felt this way in a while

(Or really at all)

You brought back my childish smile

(With actions small)

I never thought I’d find someone like you

I tried to stay safe but what could I do?

Everything felt so right upon your arrival

You’re the reason for my care and love revival

(Bridge)

(You’re the reason)

I swore when the hooks ripped through my skin

I would never let anyone else back in

But you’re the reason (you’re the reason)

I’m ready to begin believing again

Believe there’s nothing wrong with me

Believe there’s more then misery

Believe I don’t want my life to end

(You saved me)

From the words that you say to the looks that you give

You helped me find my new reason live

I swear I won’t be the one to let you go

I just thought that I’d let you know

I haven’t felt this way in a while

(Or really at all)

You brought back my childish smile

(With actions small)

I never thought I’d find someone like you

I tried to stay safe but what could I do?

Everything felt so right upon your arrival

You’re the reason for my care and love revival

(Bridge)

(You’re the reason)

I swore when the hooks ripped through my skin

I would never let anyone else back in

But you’re the reason (you’re the reason)

I’m ready to begin believing again

Believe there’s nothing wrong with me

Believe there’s more then misery

Believe I don’t want my life to end

(You saved me)

So baby I’ll give you everything

I thought I wouldn’t give again

So baby I’ll give you everything

I thought I wouldn’t give again
