Eddi Reader - Safe As Houses lyrics

One victory they burned down And sometimes its hard To take you kite shopping In Neil's yard That was then and I don't know how But I was caught in the middle And it doesn't matter now Wherever you are Let me know that you're safe Safe as houses On our bus ride, it struck me We're not apart But stuck together With hands of kindness and your good, good heart That was then and I don't know how But I was caught in the middle And it doesn't matter now Wherever you are Let me know that you're safe Safe as houses You told me, you would be, the one who'd watch over me That was then And I don't know how But I was caught in the middle It doesn't matter now Wherever you are Let me know that you're safe Safe as houses That was then And I don't know how But I was caught in the middle It doesn't matter now Wherever you are Let me know that you're safe Safe as houses
