Jeffrey Gaines - Safety In Self lyrics

Once again we're reminded of how it all will end And we've outgrown illusion We can no longer pretend But it wasn't long ago Our chins in the air Within the safety of home We were bound for anywhere The only thing that we all had in common was you And now you've moved on And there isn't anything we can do But it wasn't long ago We were all gathered 'round This house was a home Happiness was found Now we must find a new safety in self And implement all that we've learned Now is the time to find our own wealth And stand on our own So much we have grown From knowing you I know this loss was intended To let us all begin And to give up now would be a sin We can't fall down We've got to keep marching But it wasn't long ago We were all at ease Headed for home Thought we had beat this disease And it wasn't long ago That we lived with the prayer That in the safety of home You would always be there Now we must find a new safety in self And all that you taught is returned Now is the time to find our own wealth And finish what's begun before our days are done We must be true Now we must find a new safety in self And live all the life you deserved And now is the time to find our own wealth Though we're not made of stone Or meant to be alone I've learned this to from you
