I was young then

But I remember when

When I'd need to hide away



I had a secret place I'd go

Where I could just be on my own

And I didn't feel afraid



But even though I'm older now and things have changed

When I'm in your arms I'm right back there again



[Chorus:]

You're the place that I can run to

When I need somewhere to hide 

You're my compass and my lifeline

All wrapped into one

You're where I feel safe

You're my secret place

You're my secret place



When no one understands

And I feel like half a man

And I can't make it through the day



When nothing's makiing sense

And my soul is bruised and bent

And I've lost all of my faith



You always seem to find a way to get me through 

All I know is I'm a better man with you



[Chorus:]

You're the place that I can run to

(You'rer where I belong)

When I need somewhere to hide 

(The road that takes me home)

You're my compass and my lifeline

All wrapped into one

You're where I feel safe

You're my secret place

You're my secret place



You're my only shelter from the rain

You're the silver lining to my grey

And when the storm is oover

You're the sunlight onn my face

You're the dream I try to chase



[Chorus:]

You're the place that I can run to

(You'rer where I belong)

When I need somewhere to hide 

(The road that takes me home)

You're my compass and my lifeline

All wrapped into one

You're where I feel safe

You're my secret place

You're my secret place
