Safe & Sound
Samantha Vaga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I said, "I′ll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that′s dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Don′t you dare look out your window darling
Everything′s on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music's gone
Gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You′ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
La La (La La)
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
Just close your eyes
You′ll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh
The lyrics to Samantha Vaga's song "Safe & Sound" speak to finding comfort and safety in the midst of chaos, fear, and pain. The song describes a moment in which the singer comforts someone who has been struggling, perhaps with depression or anxiety, as they watch the sunset and face the uncertainty of the night. The person being comforted is fearful and feels alone, but the singer promises to be there for them, to protect them and keep them safe from harm. They will face the coming day together and emerge unscathed, with a newfound sense of hope and resilience.
The recurring motif of the sunset in the lyrics highlights the emotional and psychological tension of the moment, as well as the theme of light and darkness. The "tears streaming down your face" represent the fear, pain and discomfort that the person being comforted is experiencing, and the shadows may represent the challenges that they face. The promise of safety and security that the singer makes is a sign of hope, a reminder that even when everything is shrouded in darkness, there is always the possibility of light and warmth.
