[Verse 1]
You may say I'm lucky to be traveling
And that California makes you smile
But I spend most of my time waiting
For them to kill the sound and dim the lights

[Verse 2]
You may say that every place is 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

[Chorus]
Say what you want
I'm safe in my lover's arms
But I'm always leaving the best things behind
Oh how I long for those late nights in London
I've 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

[Verse 3]
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 adventures
The further from you I get
[Chorus]
Say what you want
I'm safe in my lover's arms
And 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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
Say what you want
I'm safe in my lover's arms
But I'm always leaving the best things behind
Oh how 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 place than in your arms
I wish that I was in your arms tonight
