Don't You Know He Loves You
Safari Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You′ve been standing there waiting for someone to come
Who can ease your mind
Take your heavy load away
But nobody has come
Now your standing there
All alone
But there's someone you haven′t called upon
Don't you know he loves you
Don't you know he cares
He is reaching for you
No matter how far away you are
He′s been waiting for you
Since the creation of stars
He will love you
Just the way you are

He is so much more then a picture on the wall
And for you my friend he′s got so much love in store
I know that you cant feel that he's power is for real
And there′s no one that he, he can not heal

Don't you know he loves you
Don′t you know he cares
He is reaching for you
No matter how far away you are
He's been waiting for you




Since the creation of stars
He will love you
