[Verse 1]
I promise this: I'll never take you for granted
Without a kiss, I knew you're all that I wanted
You walked into the room, and in a word, you owned it
I couldn't move, I was locked into the moment
[Hook]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
[Verse 2]
And from the stage, it was like the heavens opened
I felt the world shiftin' gears into slow motion
You justified a dream I always carried with me
Just when I'd given up, your love swooped in to lift me up
[Hook]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
[Chorus 1]
Don't be afraid when the waves get too tall
Or when this noisy world makes you feel small
I'll be there to carry you to safety
[Verse 3]
I was a seagull wand'rin' the lonely beaches
Now I'm an eagle soarin' to your upper reaches
Not very long ago, you were a total stranger
Now suddenly you are a real-life changer
[Hook]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
[Chorus 2]
Don't be afraid when the waves get too tall
Or when it's cold and the snow starts to fall
I'll be there to carry you to safety
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus 1]
Don't be afraid when the waves get too tall
Or when this noisy world makes you feel small
[Chorus 2]
Don't be afraid when the waves get too tall
Or when it's cold and the snow starts to fall
I'll be there to carry you to safety
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
