The Safe Side Lyrics

The Safe Side lyrics

Have you ever wondered what life would be like

If you'd only went left
instead of taking that right

If you had waited just ten more minutes to
leave the house

Would it all be different

Every decision everything we
choose has a consequence whether we win or lose

Nobody knows that any
better than me

I left her standing at the station with a ticket and a
dream



She's the train that I didn't take

The big commitment I just
couldn't make

For fear of breaking my heart, I didn't risk the
ride

She's the lesson I learned the hard way

Now being lonely is the
price I pay

The river of regret runs deep and wide

Here on the safe
side



I still remember the night she left

She said she didn't want
to lose me, but she had to find herself

I could've stopped her or got on
board with her

But now it's too late to reconsider



She's the train
that I didn't take

The big commitment I just couldn't make

For fear of
breaking my heart, I didn't risk the ride

She's the lesson I learned the
hard way

Now being lonely is the price I pay

The river of regret runs
deep and wide

Here on the safe side

Sometimes the greatest risk of
all

Is never taking one at all

She's the train that I didn't
take

The big commitment I just couldn't make

For fear of breaking my
heart, I didn't risk the ride

She's the lesson I learned the hard
way

Now being lonely is the price I pay

The river of regret runs deep
and wide

Here on the safe side

Oh I don't want to be alone

Here on
the safe side
