Lyrics:

SAFELY IN MY ARMS (Dani)
Sometimes I go and hang my head
like I´ve lost my thread
and everything seems so dull and gray
because you´re too far away
then knowing that you´re coming back
will always get me back on track, darlin ´back on track

When you are here safely in my arms
I´m gonna kiss you and hold you tight
I´m gonna make you feel so good and allright

When you´re away, I will feel so blue
yearnin´ so for you
I don´t know how I will survive
if I´m still alive
you know my darlin´ that I love you so
and that I want you so now please, please don´t say no

When you are here safely in my arms
I´m gonna kiss you and hold you tight
I´m gonna make you feel so good and allright
and I will ask you sweetheart of mine if you´ll be my wife
to be my true love indeed for the rest of my life

solo

When you are here safely in my arms
I´m gonna kiss you and hold you tight
I´m gonna make you feel so good and allright
and I will ask you sweetheart of mine if you´ll be my wife
to be my true love indeed for the rest of my life * 3 times
Fade away

Have a nice summer, everyone !!!:))

Cheers
Dani

Hello Dani,

some interesting chord changes here. Interesting backing vocals too, especially the high-pitched ones!
We hadn't heard the 2027 piano soloist before, but it works great in this song. We will check out the soloist too!

This is fantastic Dani!

Love the chord progression and of course your vocals. Great job on the harmonies.

I'll bet Li loves this one!

One of your best, Dani!

A good write and a terrific "band". Good mix.

Nice harmonies (of course).

I assume that Li speaks English, too? 'Cause this sure sounds like a proposal to me...

Hi Dani,

Wow smile From a listener's point of view, this is very, very engaging. I sat here, feet tapping and head rocking from side to side. I rate this as 100% feel-good music. Love the piano playing. What a great Realtrack. You got my applause.

I think that this might be my new Dani favourite!

All the best,
Noel

Nice snappy, catchy tune!! The upbeat, feelgood nature reminds me of the 60's/70's (My era). Piano solo is cool. Always love the way you do BG vocals. Very pleasant and fun song!! Take care. Greg
