Safe
Bonnie Bailey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Purely intense amazing
Exquisitely devastating
I'm in a daze and I'm
Drenched in our moment

Suddenly life is spectacular
A decade full circle brought me back to you
Always the boy with the yellow rose
I just could not forget

[Chorus]
And I feel safe now
That's where I want to be
I can breathe in this serenity
I will chase down both our armies
No more historical calamity here
No more historical calamity here

You inspire me fiercely
Reconcile negativity
My fear I placed before the union of two

Relentless in your chivalry
Love to lick your lips so thankfully
Always the boy with yellow rose
Peacock feather and baby's breath

[Chorus]

My vision is to follow through
I patiently waited this long for you
So completely consumed
God you're beautiful
The whole world fades in a crowded room
A decade full circle brought me back to you
Always the boy with the yellow rose
I just could not forget





[Chorus out]
