Safely Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Just enough, not too far

"Slow down now", you said

So I can keep my eye on your star



[Verse 2]

Just enough, one last glance

Launching gently into the arms of circumstance



[Pre-Chorus 1]

Cross your feet on top of the water

Sunset on the back of my hands

And all I can remember is what I left on land



[Chorus]

Take your hand off my shoulder, but keep your eye on me

I'll be sailing a long time, and missing our home

But you know, I'll be free

You've given all your love to me

But you don't have to let me go, to let me go

You don't have to let me go



[Verse 3]

Silently, a simple spell, carry me home, carry me home

From here, on the wings of weightless fear



[Pre-Chorus 2]

Eyeing path in the distance

Perch my way past every plant

But I carry in my chest what I left on land



[Chorus]

Take your hand off my shoulder, but keep your eye on me

I'll be sailing a long time, and missing our home

But you know, I'll be free

And you've given all your love to me

But you don't have to let me go, to let me go

You don't have to let me go, to let me go

You don't have to let me go, to let me go

You don't have to let me go, to let me go



[Bridge]

Let me go (You don't have to let me go, to let me go)

It's okay, let me go (You don't have to let me go, to let me go)

And if I fall (Let me go, it's okay to let me go)

I'll fall safely (Let me go, that's okay to let me go)



[End-Chorus]

Take your hand off my shoulder, but keep your eye on me

I'll be sailing a long time, and missing our home

But you know that I'll be free

And you've given all your strength to me

You've given all your love to me

You've given all you can to me

And you don't have to let me go
