  • I could lift you up
    I could show you what you want to see
    And take you where you want to be
    You could be my luck
    Even if the sky is falling down
    I know that we'll be safe and sound
    We're safe and sound

    I could fill your cup
    You know my river won't evaporate
    This world, we still appreciate
    You could be my luck
    Even in a hurricane of frowns
    I know that we'll be safe and sound

    (Safe and sound)
    We're safe and sound (safe and sound)
    We're safe and sound (hold your ground)
    We're safe and sound (safe and sound)

    I could show you love
    In a tidal wave of mystery
    You'll still be standing next to me
    You could be my luck
    Even if we're six feet underground
    I know that we'll be safe and sound

    We're safe and sound

    (Safe and sound)
    (Safe and sound)
    (Hold your ground)
    (Safe and sound)

    I could lift you up
    I could show you what you want to see
    And take you where you want to be
    You could be my luck
    Even if the sky is falling down
    I know that we'll be safe and sound

    I could lift you up
    I could show you what you want to see
    And take you where you want to be
    You could be my luck
    Even if the sky is falling down
    I know that we'll be safe and sound

    We're safe and sound
    We're safe and sound
    We're safe and sound
    We're safe and sound (safe and sound)
    We're safe and sound (safe and sound)
    We're safe and sound (hold your ground)
    We're safe and sound (safe and sound)

  • AdminslovetoflyI believe the lyrics are pretty much as far away from Christianity as possible. They sound like they could be used in an advertisement about personal gratification at the expense of real life responsibilities. Upon purchase you supposedly gain freedom to disconnect from the consequences of the real world and can finally live in a safe haven where you can always be where you want. Even the melody and rhythm is designed to sound like a drug trip.
  • Dyoweh from Singapore, SingaporeThis is a Christian Rock anthem. They are clearly singing about Jesus.
