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
