Belle And Sebastian Safety Valve Lyrics

I wrote a song to you
I poured my soul in it
Now I'm feeling flat
I want my soul back

Lately I just need a pal
Thanks for being my safety valve

I know that there's something up there, I can feel it
I walk in the night, I look in the windows
There's dinners and parties and late conversations
Laughing out loud, the tears of a crowd

Lady I just need a pal
Wish you'd be my safety valve

Hey, I've been here before
I'll save you, it's a serious bore
Hey I've been
I still wrote this song for you
I dedicate this song to you

I know you've been there all along
I wanna stay close to you

Sometimes I just need a pal
Thanks for being my safety valve

Hell on my own is a night without prospects
You need something good to get through the day
I'm not in a good place, I know I'll get better
But just for tonight, take me away

Come and be my sacred cow
Come and be my safety valve

Hey, I've been there before
I'll spare you, it's a serious bore
Hey, I've been there before
I'll save you, it's a serious bore
Hey, I've been there before
