Safe Trip Home

Dido Safe Trip Home Lyrics
1.Don't Believe In Love

I wanna go to bed
With arms around me
But wake up on my own
Pretend
That I'm still sleeping
Til' you go home

Oh
I can't look at you
This morning
I should probably have a sign
That says
'Leave right now or quicker'
You've overstayed your time

If I don't believe in love
Nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love
Nothing is safe for me
When I don't believe in love
You're too close to me
And that's why
You have to leave

Maybe I slept peaceful
On your shoulder
Your arm warm around my side
But it's different now
It's morning
And I can't face your smile

The second that I feel
Your safe hands
Reaching out for mine
I slip away and out of sight
You've ovestayed your time

If I don't believe in love
Nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love
Nothing will last for me
When I don't believe in love
Nothing is new for me
Nothing is wrong for me
And nothing is real for me

When I don't believe in love
Why do you care for me?
When I don't believe in love
Nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love
You're getting to close to me
And that's why you have to leave
And that's why you have to leave

If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love
Nothing is left for me
If I don't believe in love
You're too good for me




I wanna go to bed
With arms around me
But wake up on my own
Pretend I'm still sleeping till you go home


why I can't look at you this morning ?
I should probably have a sign
They says
'Leave right now or quicker'
You've overstayed your time


If I don't believe in love
Nothing is last for me
If I don't believe in love
Nothing is safe for me
When I don't believe in love
You're too close to me that's why you have to leave



Maybe I slept peaceful on your shoulder
Your arm warm around my side
But it's different now in the morning
I can't face your smile


The second that I feel your safe hands
Reaching out for mine
I slip away and out of sight
You've ovestayed your time


If I don't believe in love
Nothing is good for me ?
If I don't believe in love
Nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love
Nothing is new for me
Nothing is wrong for me
And nothing is real for me


If I don't believe in love
Nothing is good for me ?
If I don't believe in love
Nothing will last for me
When I don't believe in love
Nothing is new for me ?
Nothing is wrong for me
And nothing is real for me


If I don't believe in love
What do you get from me? ?
When I don't believe in love
Nothing is real for me Reality
If I don't believe in love
You're getting too close to me that's why you have to leave

that's why you have to leave


If I don't believe in love

If I don't believe in love

If I don't believe in love
Nothing is last for me
If I don't believe in love
You're too good for me


2.Quiet Times

Ask me where i go tonight i go back to today last year. Me and
you had to make each other happier, now theres hope with
everything.

Its hard enough to feel the world as it is and hold on anything.
Without these quiet times you've brought round here.

Im Gonna have to run away, im sure that i belong some other
place. I've seen another side of all i've seen it keeps me
wondering where my family is.

Its hard enough to see the world as it is, and hold on anything.
Without these quiet times coming round here.

Now i miss you...
Now i want you...
But i can't have you...
Even when your here...

Suppose i have to take you with me, broken mind i'd rather leave
you here. To forget everything you've seen and known erase every
idea.

And you walk up in the street, and hold my hand and smile. Well
i won't be taken in, cus i know how it turns out. And it takes
me back to these quiet times coming round here.

Now i miss you...
Now i want you...
Your not coming back...
And i need you...
But i can't have you...
Even when your here...

Now i miss you...
Now i want you...
Your not coming back...
And i need you...
But i can't have you...
Even when your here...




You ask me where I go tonight ,I go back to today last year.

Me and you had to make each other happier, and was hopes for
everything.
It's hard enough to feel the world as it is and hold on
anything.
Without these quiet times ,you've brought around here.



I'm gonna have to run away, I'm sure that I belong some other
place.
I've seen another side of all I've seen it keeps me wondering
where my family is.
It's hard enough to see the world as it is, and hold on
anything.
Without these quiet times coming around here.


Now I miss you......
Now I want you......
But I can't have you even when you here... ...


Suppose I have to take you with me, broken mind I'd rather leave
you here.
To forget everything you've seen and known erase every idea.

And you walk up in the street, and hold my hand and smile.

Well I won't be taken in, cause I know how it turns out.

And it takes me back to these quiet times coming round here.



Now I miss you......
Now I want you......
Your not coming back......
And I need you......
But I can't have you even when you here... ...


Now I miss you......
Now I want you......
You're not coming back......
And I need you......
But I can't have you even when you here... ...

3.Never Want To Say It's Love

Never Want to Say it's Love

I could put it down to being tired,
Or coming home to an empty house,
A passing moment,
A little man -
No one around to stop me writing to you.

I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of

I could apologise,
And say 'tear it up,
And put it down to the pills I've taken'
Seeing my friends with their lives moved on
Well I've been gently drifting

I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
I felt the same today
As I was feeling yesterday
It'll be the same tomorrow
From an only one change
I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of

My home is home
And I'm settled now
I've made it through the restless phase
I have no reason to get bored anymore
My friends are around and your name comes up
Asking if I ever heard from you
I'm keeping it quiet about those words to you
But I meant every word that I said
I stand by every word that I said

I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
I felt the same today
As I was feeling yesterday
It'll be the same tomorrow
From an only one change
I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
I felt the same today
As I was feeling yesterday
It'll be the same tomorrow
From an only one change
I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of


4.Grafton Street

No more trips to Grafton Street,
No more goin' there,
To see you lying still,
While we all come and go.

No more watching sunsets,
It seems like summer's holding on.
And no more standing quietly at your window.

No more driving down your road,
Wond'ring when you'll be home.
And no more peace when they all leave
And leave us two alone.

And time we always lose is finally found here with you.
My love, I know we're losing but I will stand here by you.

No more calling friends from the car saying I don't know when,
I'll be there but I'll do my best to come.
No more letting you warm my hands,
No more trying to take it in.
And no more saying goodbye for the last time again
And no more saying goodbye for the last time again

And time we always lose is finally found here with you.
My love, I know you're leaving but I will stand here by you.

No more trips to Grafton Street,
No more goin' there,
No more sitting up all night,
Waiting for any word.

Nothing's left that's safe here now,
Nothing will bring you home
Nothing can bring us the peace
We had in Grafton Street.


5.It Comes And It Goes

Some days I wanna, and some days I don't. Sometimes I can feel
it and suddenly its gone... Some days I can tell you the truth
and some days I just don't. Only a change of mood sun goes down
some one says something to quick or to soon, a touch not made
one made to late army's of words can not hope to contain...

Then it comes and it goes.

And I have no control.

Some days I can think clear and some days I wont. Sometimes I
can feel it and suddenly its gone... Some days I am strong and
some days my skins broken and thin. That's when it feels and it
takes what it needs and it leaves before I get to know, its only
a step away moments that army's of words can not hope to
contain...

Then it comes and it goes.

And I cant make it home.

And theres nothing at home.

And it breaks me when it goes.

Some days I wanna, and some days I don't. Sometimes I can feel
it and suddenly its gone... Some days I can tell you the truth
and some days I just don't. Only a change of mood dream comes
out some one tells something to quick or to soon, a move not
made one made to late army's of words can not hope to contain...

Then it comes and it goes.

And I seem to hope

And theres nothing at home.

And it breaks me when it goes.


6.Look No Further

I might have been a singer
Who sailed around the world
A gambler who wins millions
And spent it all on girls

I might have been a poet
Who walked upon the moon
A scientist who wouldtell the world
I discovered something new

I might have loved a king
Been the one to end a war
A criminal who drink champaign
And never could be caught

But among your books
Among your clothes
Among the noise and fuss

I've let it go

I can't stop and catch my breathe
And Look No further for happiness
And I will not turn again
'Cause my heart has found its home

Everyone i'll never meet
And friends I wont now make
The adventures that they could have been
And the risks I'll never take

but Among Your Books
Among your clothes
Among the noise and fuss

I've let it go

I can't stop and catch my breathe
And Look No further for happiness
And I will not turn again
'Cause my heart has found its home


7.Us 2 Little Gods

Walking home, burnt and red
Sticky thin, he said
let us go down in the woods
can you be careful she said
us 2 little gods with the world at our feet

Sticky thin, how you've grown they said
You'll never fit in your long white dress
When's he going to try and get a job
I'm thankful for what we've got she said
us 2 little gods with the world at our feet

Just in this life, I need no other
Just this day, I need no more
Just this moment, let it all stop here
Let it all stop here I've had my fill.

Summers here, early again
Lets take the kid and go and celebrate
Drinking beer, moon on the left
and there's the sun, hold my hand he said
us 3 little gods, with the world at our feet

Just in this life, I need no other
Just this day, I need no more
Just this moment, let it all stop here
Let it all stop here I've had my fill.


8.The Day Before The Day

speeches won't be made today, clocks will carry on
flowers wont be left in parks, work will still be done
people wont be dressed in clack, babies will be born
no flags will fly, the sun will rise,
but we know that you are gone

you who love to love and believed we can never give enough

it wakes me every single night, thinking through the day
did you stop at any time have doubts at any stage
were you calm or were you numb or happy just to get it done
i've lived my life without regret until today

you who love to love and believed we can never give enough

I didnt get to say goodbye the day before the day
was trying to get to work on time, thats why i turned away
and missed the most important thing you've ever tried to say
i've lived my life without regret until today

you who love to love and believed we can never give enough
and you who hoped that underneath we all felt the same
that was until the day before the day


Speeches won't be made today, clocks will carry on
Flowers wont be left in parks, work will still be done

People wont be dressed in black, babies will be born

No flags will fly the sun will rise but we will know that you
are gone


You who love to love
And believed we can never give enough


It wakes me every single night, thinking through the
day
Did you stop at any time, have doubts at any stage
Or where you calm or where you numb or happy just to get it done

I've lived my life without regret until today


And you who love to love
And believed we can never give enough


I didnt get to say goodbye the day before the day

Was trying to get to work on time that's why I turned away

And missed the most important thing you ever tried to say

I've lived my life without regret until today


And you who love to love
And believed we can never give enough
And you who hoped that underneath we all feel the same

That was until the day before the day,the day before the day



The day before the day, oh the day before the day ...
The day before the day, oh the day before the day ...
Oh the day before the day, oh the day before the day ...


9.Let's Do The Things We Normally Do

Let's pretend that we'll be here tomorrow
And I'll try for you to be a little more on time
I know you need to say you know you've let me down
But you haven't and it's hard to talk with people all around

Please don't say how proud you are
Lets do the things we normally do
I'll say see you later
You'll sing a line or two
From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to

Lets forget that we're here and make some plans
We'll go for walks
Sit on the bench we always sat
I'll tell you every little detail of my day and so will you
Don't try to stay awake
I'm feeling tired too

This is just another day
Let's do the things we normally do

I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two
From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to

Armored cars and tanks and guns came to take away our sons
And everybody's stood behind
The man behind the wire
There's a fight to love
A fight to have
Your bed's a battlefield and back
And all of this will just be stripped away

Let's do the things we normally do
I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two
From your rebel songs sung out of tune
Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to

Don't look me in the eye more than you need to

Don't try to say goodbye if I don't want to
Don't say how proud you are
And say I'm far away
and take along your
and say a word
and I can say fade away


10.Burnin Love

found no peace
In the lies that I've told,
I'm only hurt by the blows that get withheld
The sharper I get cut
The harder I get held
More that I believe
That you will come to me

Without you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for
Whao-ao
Without you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for

I found no peace
In the lies that I've told,
I'm only hurt by the blows that get withheld
The sharper I get cut
The harder I get held
More that I believe
That you will come to me

Without you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for
Whao-ao
Without you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for

'out you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for

Without you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for
Whao-ao
Without you I've been burnin' love
Whao-ao
You're the one that I've been calling for


11.Northern Skies

'I have returned to the northern skies'

I have returned to the northern skies,
Where the summer had not touched
The clouds that pass above.
Oh, and I have returned to the somber grace
Of the days too early to come and too early to stay.

And I have left a million stars,
And an ocean so lightly, so clearly blue.
And I have left the warmth of the sun
And a million adventures not yet begun.
The great sense of passing through,
The great sense of passing through,
The great sense of passing through.
Oh, for once there was beauty here for me
Under these white, northern skies.
I felt the green was blacker
And the blue was darker still.
My roots are lying deeper than I ever think they will again.
Heartache and poverty under these northern skies.
The great sense of passing through,
The great sense of passing through,
The great sense of passing through
