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 out 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 want to stick 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 pal
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
