Josh provides comfort for his lover in this smooth string ballad about wanting to be the place that they can always confide in.
Groban stated on his website:
When making an album you always record more songs than you can include on the final version due to a limited number of spots, ‘Your Hideaway...
[Verse 1]
The sun is setting in your quiet eyes
You take for granted what we've always seen inside
You run in circles
And you don't know how
You got to this place
But you sure do live there now
[Chorus]
And I won't blame you if you fall
And I won't ask you to believe that life won't hurt at all
When the tears stream down your face
And you've given all your light away
I'd like to be the safest place
Your hideaway
[Verse 2]
The fear keeps coming back to you in waves
When you catch the wrong side of the same mistakes you've made
You're tuning out because it hurts too much to try
You're giving up before you've had your chance to fly
[Chorus]
And I won't blame you if you fall
And I won’t ask you to believe that life won't hurt at all
But when the tears stream down your face
And you've given all your light away I'd liked to be the safest place
Your hideaway, Your hideaway
And here comes the rain
[Chorus]
When you've given all your light away I'd like to be the safest place
I will close the doors and lock the gates
And give to you my safest place
Your hideaway
Your hideaway
