You may say I'm lucky to be travelling
And that California makes you smile
But I spend most of my time waiting
For them to kill the sound and dim the lights

You may say that everything's as different
That you're just stuck where you are
But to me the only thing that changes
Are the faces that listen in the dark

Say what you want
I'm safe in my lovers arms
I'm always leaving the best things behind
Oh, how I long for those late nights in London
I searched the world over
but still I can't find
A better place than in your arms
I wish that I was in your arms... tonight

You may say there's no such thing as strangers
That they're only friends you've never met
But the more I fall into adventure
The further from you I get

Say what you want
I'm safe in my lovers arms
I'm always leaving the best things behind
Oh, how I long for those late nights in London
I searched the world over
but still I can't find
A better place than in your arms
I wish that I was in your arms tonight

The only thing
I'm running from
Is all I run back to
You're all I run back to

The only thing
I'm running from
Is all I run back to
You're all I run back to

Say what you want
I'm safe in my lovers arms
I'm always leaving the best things behind
Oh, how I long for those late nights in London
I searched the world over
but still I can't find
A better place than in your arms
I wish that I was in your arms
A better place than in your arms
I wish that I was in your arms... tonight
