Safe And Sound

Capital Cities · Safe And Sound - Ep [2012]

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)

We're safe and sound
