Safe – safe from the past, but are you really safe from yourself
I'll hold the door open, see I've got to get you through
Walk – choosing the long way, I think I've made that trip before
And if you're going the distance, then there's something I must do

I'm taking you from the minor key of life
I'm taking you from the minor key of life
I'm taking you from the minor key of life

Must be clouds on the horizon, didn't see those clouds appear
But I just want to be inside, I just want you to be near
Yell – yell if you need to, there's a method to your scream
There might be better ways to fix things, better ways to cross that stream

I'm taking you from the minor key of life
I'm taking you from the minor key of life
I'm taking you from the minor key of life

Would you take it if you saw it when the light shone through
Would you go there if you saw it was the thing to do
Would you say it if to say it makes it all come true
Would you let me love you – let me love you

(Solo)

I'm taking you from the minor key of life
I'm taking you from the minor key of life
I'm taking you from the minor key of life
