Love is like a Firefly
My love is like a firefly
In a night of Hades
But you are as safe as an angel
Is safe in the ethereal haven
Where the Almighty oversees all.

Safe
[verse 1]
Here I am alone with You
Quietly I talk to You
You said the truth would set me free
So here I am surrendering
(pre-chorus)
I know I can let your promise be my hope
And I know until You take me home
[chorus]
I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe
[verse 2]
My heart is overflowing
With peace beyond all knowing
This love is deep, it shelters me
And I'm safe within Your reach
(pre-chorus)
I know I can let your promise be my hope
And I know until You take me home
[chorus]
I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe
[bridge]
Though the odds are stacked against me
Though I'm running out of time
My heart is breaking
But I know You are mine
So I let You see into me as
You hold me in Your hand
My heart is on my sleeve
I'm safe because You understand
You understand
[chorus]
I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe

Safe In The Arms Of Love
(pam rose/mary ann kennedy/pat bunch)
My hearts not ready for the rocking chair
I need somebody who really cares
So tired of living solitaire
Someday Im gonna be
Safe in the arms of love
Strip your heart and it starts to snow
Love is a high-wire act I know
Someday Ill find a net below
Someday Im gonna be
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
Chorus:
I want arms that know how to rock me
Safe in the arms of love
I wanna fall and know that love as caught me
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
I want a heart to be forever mine
Want eyes to see me satisfied
Gonna hang my heartaches out to dry
Someday Im gonna be safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
Repeat chorus

Angel Arms
In the arms of the angel I am carried to the gates of heaven
I am safe
Safe
Away from myself and you
Pain has become but a distant memory
But it still stabs at my heart at the near THOUGHT of you
In the arms of the angel
Far from you
I am broken
Torn to shreds by the anger of our last words
Shattered by the ground which embraced me when I fell
In the arms of the angel I was lifted from the rubble
The dirty hole in which you'd layed my broken body
JUMP, my love
Take my hand
I will guide you
In the arms of the angel
So far away

Social Security
No one is safe. The streets are unsafe.
even in the safety zones, it's not safe.
Even safe sex is not safe.
Even things you lock in a safe
are not safe. Never deposit anything
in a safety deposit box, because it
won't be safe there. Nobody is safe
at home during baseball games anymore.
At night I go around in the dark
locking everything, returning
a few minutes later
to make sure I locked
everything. It's not safe here.
It's not safe and they know it.
People get hurt using safety pins.
It was not always this way.
Long ago, everyone felt safe. Aristotle
never felt danger. Herodotus felt danger
only when Xerxes was around. Young women
were afraid of wingéd dragons, but felt
relaxed otherwise. Timotheus, however,
was terrified of storms until he played
one on the flute. After that, everyone
was more afraid of him than of the violent
west wind, which was fine with Timotheus.
Euclid, full of music himself, believed only
that there was safety in numbers.

The Pricelessness of It
I came to provide you,
A safe haven to share.
But you didn't see it.
Your ego sought attention,
To be pleased by those...
Who chose you for their affairs.
So much of what you wanted,
Was there for me to give.
But you were looking for imitations.
Something not to build or create.
Something already there...
With a temporary pleasing,
To feed with impression.
And pretentions to spare.
I came to provide you,
A safe haven to share.
For just you and me,
To succeed anywhere.
But you had no respect for that.
What I brought to give you could not see.
And now that I've exposed what you could not believe,
You assess what you've obtained...
As a value diminished.
In times you seek something treasured to keep.
But that which is purchased for eyes to impress,
Often rusts to turn to dust...
After much rubbing and touching.
To amplify one's unhappiness,
With a yearning in endless searching.
To change ever so much.
I came to provide you,
A safe haven to share.
But the pricelessness of it,
Could not sit or fit...
Within your limits.

You Can Dance If You Want To
we can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends dont dance
And if they dont dance
Well they're no friends of mine
Say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Because you're one far behind
We can dance
We can go where we want to
The night is young and so am i
And we can dress real neat
From out hats to our feet
Then surprise them with a big trick ride
Say, we can act if we want to
If we dont, nobody will
And you can act real rude
And totally removed
And i can act like an imbusil
Say, we can dance
We can dance
Everything's outta control
We can dance
We can dance
We're doing it more and more
We can dance
We can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance
We can dance
Everybody's taking the cha-nce
It's safe to dance
Oh well, it's safe to dance
Yes, it's safe to dance
We can dance if we want to
We've got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it
Never gonna lose it
Everything will work out right
I say, we can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
Because your friends dont dance
And if they dont dance
Well they're no friends of mine
I say, we can dance
We can dance
Everything's outta control
We can dance
We can dance
We're doing it more and more
We can dance
We can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance
We can dance
Everybody's taking the cha-ance
Well, it's safe to dance
Yes, it's safe to dance
Well, it's safe to dance
Oh well, it's safe to dance
Ah yes, it's safe to dance
Well, it's safe to dance
It's safe to dance
It's safe to dance

Is it Well with the Child?
SAFE where I cannot die yet,
Safe where I hope to lie too,
Safe from the fume and the fret;
You, and you,
Whom I never forget.
Safe from the frost and the snow,
Safe from the storm and the sun,
Safe where the seeds wait to grow
One by one,
And to come back in blow.

Closet Man
(foster / mercury / gerrard)
Your secrets safe inside me
Closet man
Safe under lock and key
Understand
What youre thinkin is important
Isnt really so, youll see
But your secrets absolutely safe with me
Your lovers songs and nights
Turn into tears
Your tattoos and your muscles
Disappear
And the ring that I once gave you
Now, youre wearin in your ear
But your secrets absolutely safe my dear
Oh, your secrets safe with me
Oh, your secrets safe right here with me
Oh, your secrets safe with me
Oh, your secrets safe right here with me
You know, its all right to go on and live your life
So, come out into the light
Closet man
Theres nothing new at all under the sun
Youve got company
Youre not the only one
Why, its older than religion
And, quite honestly, more fun
But your secrets absolutely safe my dear, dont worry
Oh, your secrets safe with me
Oh, your secrets safe right here with me
Oh, your secrets safe with me
Oh, your secrets safe right here with me
You know, its all right to go on and live your life
So, come out into the light
Closet man, yeah
You know, its all right to go on and live your life
So, come out into the light
Closet man
You know, its all right to go on and live your life
So, come out into the light

Play It Safe

Say ta
Eisenhower saw the thing
He said this is sickening
I swear I saw the very thing
I saw it in america
Lets play safe
I never knew how
How to play safe
You told me how
How to play safe
A thousand times
I dont believe in fairies any more
Today I saw a very very thing
But thats another song
Youre too simple minded
Lets play it safe
What do we have in common?
Play it safe
What do we have in common?
Play it safe
I want to be a criminal
Play it safe

Murder
Tight security
Looks that challenge
Savage end aid food chain balance
Even the fabulous cant avoid
A random attack to pass a
Boring night
Blue habit sap my strength
Fleet of dump trucks line my street
Bludgeoned to death or shot in the head
Murder down the hall
That green monument wont prevent death
No one said, no ones safe
No one said, no ones safe
No one said, no ones safe
No one, no ones safe

Each is good in a way.
If elephants were killed; plants would be safe.
If cows were slaughtered; grass would be safe.
If tigers were shot dead; animals would be safe.
If men were killed; the planet would be safe.

I Have A Angel
i have a angel
that watches over me
she makes me feel safe
she helps me through the pain and hurt
she is my angel
that will always be by me side
even though i did wrong
she is still my gaurdian angel
she helped me be a better person
and get over the past
she is my angel
that will always be by my side
even though i did wrong
she is still my gaurdian angel
she is the light that guides me
through the darkness of the night
she is my angel
that will always watch over me

As There Aren`t Safe Nests...
A migrating bird chirps into my ears,
'Can you make a nest for me that will be safe for ever? '
I don`t know what he means by a safe nest
For my nest has been on the verge of a collapse.
He flies away dreaming about a safe nest.
That leaves me with a question, ' Where to fix a safe nest? '
Safe nests should never be on the branches of trees
For trees themselves are tormented by storms and quakes.
Safe nests shouldn`t be on the roofs of man`s homes either
For his mischevious kids may throw away the eggs.
Safe nests should not be under the water or in the skies
For the fury and the terror of these elements are disastrous.
Safe nests shouldn`t be anywhere that eyes see or ears hear
For there are humans living on this earth.
You migrate my dear bird to anywhere you feel it safe
And never return to these unsafe homes.

Sending you an angel...
I'm sending you my angel,
With wings of pure love.
He will keep you safe from harm,
And watch you from above.
I am sending him to guard you,
Just so that you will know.
I care so much about you,
And just thought I'd tell you so.
I have sent my loving angel,
He is watching over you.
He will comfort, love and guide you,
In everything you do.
His wings enfolded round you,
Will warm your loving soul.
When you feel his tender touch,
You'll realise my goal.
He has promised to protect you,
And keep you safe from harm.
Guide you through your darkest times,
With love to keep you warm.
So trust my special angel,
When you feel that he's around.
This dreamer sent him to you,
So that peace and love are found...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

My Angel Love (Trijan Refrain)
My angel love, My angel love,
Such beauty in my eyes,
You're sent to me from God above
For Heaven heard my cries.
He sent you with a love so pure
A divine soul that's sure to cure...
My broken heart
My broken heart
Is safe within your wings, secure.
My angel love, My angel love,
You take away the chains,
You help me break away free of
The heartaches and the pains.
You wrap me up and hold me tight
And pull me out into the light...
We fly away
We fly away
My angel love, this feels so right.
My angel love, My angel love,
Don't ever let me go,
I give my thanks to God above
For sending you below.
And when my time comes to an end
From all the years which we transcend...
I'll follow you
I'll follow you
To Heaven we will both ascend.

Today I Felt It Safe
Today I felt it safe,
And knew it was okay...
To fall in love all over again.
Today I felt it safe,
To unlock the gate...
And welcomed those feelings again.
When I once had a shattered heart...
I ran to protect,
My emotions I had left.
Today I felt it safe,
And knew it was okay...
To fall in love all over again.
Today I felt it safe,
To unlock the gate...
To welcome back those feelings again.
When I sat in shadows to cry...
I did my best to hide,
Inside what I denied.
And just today I felt it safe,
And knew it was okay...
To fall in love all over again.
I then told friends who were so relieved.
They did not want to see me,
Grieve my life away...
Everyday.
And just today I felt it safe,
And knew it was okay...
To fall in love all over again.
And gone is pretending,
I have no needs.
Or wishes and dreams...
I want to let begin,
Again!
Today I felt it safe,
And knew it was okay...
To fall in love all over again.
Today I felt it safe,
To unlock the gate...
To welcome back those feelings again.
And I am hopeful with you they will not end!

Angel born on earth
They an angel that was born today
Not in heaven like the rest of them stay
The angel was born on earth sent by god
Not to spy on people but was blessed by the love of a family
The angel lays down looking around then see what he was going to live in.
Not that the angel was not loved as he was a gift sent from above.
The angel was a girl and she was going to be a life safer 5 years from now.
Not that any one else would know this now but she was gone safe the world.
The angel of life and death.good and bad that we had done.
Not that the angek cared god sent her to look after every one and tell them of love.

In the arms my angel
In the arms my angel
In the arms my angel you will walk with me, keeping me safe from the stormy seas.
In the arms of my angel you will pick me up to fly above the darkest sky.
In the arms of my angel he is shining his burning light of love for me.
In the arms of my angel his words of kindness is like a melody for me.
In the arms of my angel his eyes are my guide to walk along the rocky paths.
In the arms of my angel, his touch brings peace love and serenity.
