Campbell, Tevin - Safer On The Ground Lyrics






You look beautiful
As usual
Kind of like the day that we met
I would have never known
When you said hello
You would cause the damage you did
And I still wear the foot prints
That you left upon my heart
From the day that you walked out of my world
And I still catch myself looking
Out the window for your car
I know you'd probably think that I'd be over it
But baby I don't think that I will ever be

Cause I never had a fear of heights
'til you let me down
So you can find me right where you left me
Cause loving you has taught me that I'm safer on the ground
Believed I could fly
But it's over now
So you can find me right where you left me
Cause loving you has taught me that I'm safer on the ground

I tell myself I'm fine
And that I'm gonna be alright
And I believe it for a minute or two
But then our song comes on
I halfway smile because I still hear you singing off tune
I guess I still wear the foot prints
That you left upon my heart
From the day that you walked out of my world
And I still catch myself looking
Out the window for your car
I know you'd probably think that I'd be over it
But baby I don't think that I will ever be

Cause I never had a fear of heights
'til you let me down
So you can find me right where you left me
Cause loving you has taught me that I'm safer on the ground
Believed I could fly
But it's over now
So you can find me right where you left me
Cause loving you has taught me that I'm safer on the ground

Safer on the ground

Cause loving you has taught me that I'm safer on the ground

But I know now, I'm safer on the ground

Ahh yeah, safer on the ground

Oh yeah, the ground

I believed I could fly 'til you let me down

I'm safer on the ground...

    I believe Tevin was done a disservice by the industry for its non support on a talented artist !

  29. E.... C....

    ‘Safer on the ground’ I just heard this song came out a couple years ago and this is my first time hearing it. It’s a jam!

  33. j.... c....

    Was on Amazon looking for this... one of the comments was that Tevin could sing the alphabet and he'd listen... here's two.

    j.... c....

    He can made a jam out of the alphabet. I always said when the doctor smacked him on the butt and he started singing instead of crying.

  34. l.... ....

    Very average

  35. C.... ....

    I can get jiggy to this.

  36. L.... B....

    GIFTED voice. Love this song. Tev still got IT! Bring that new music on 💙💝💙💝💙💝

  37. C.... D....

    Tevin, you are one of the most amazing male vocalists that I've ever heard come out of the American recording Industry. Your voice, beauty of sound, control, musical instincts, and most of all, your ability to communicate and deliver a lyric in a way that touches our hearts. Your gift will continue to make room for you, so don't let the industry or any once keep you from doing what you are purposed to do. Many Blessings!

    C.... D....

    the man is still "BAD"

  63. A.... D....

    Tevin, I don't know how to say thank you in a manner that will make you understand how much I need your return. Your greatest hits album is in my car as we speak, and I was just jamming out to Don't Say Goodbye, and as usual, goosebumps were all over my arms as I listened to the picture- perfect way that you sang it. just like all of your songs. I grew up on you and all of my other 90s R&B peeps, too many to name. I can't even listen to the radio now. can't even remember the last time I heard slamming vocals on the radio, maybe Jazmine Sullivan. But no one after that. I've been looking at all your old videos this week; lamenting the fact that I will never hear you sing again unless it's on my old albums. Then I find a link that informs me that you've released a new song. I'm so happy you're back you have no idea. I need real music again in my life. you have the best tenor I've heard in my life and are most likely in the top 3 of the best male vocalists that I've ever heard. And I'm a singer and know a lot of music, so that's telling you something. Be brave and come hard. Your voice was a rarity and still is. We are behind you.

  64. K.... G....

    omg. I so love this song... What an rare & incredible talent. Tevin Campbell has been one of my musical idols since I was 8 yrs old. I had every Tevin Campbell Album. I Even had the hugest crush on him back then. lol currently majority of his music is on heavy rotation on my ipod.

  65. k.... w....

    this is so hot!!!

  66. c.... ....

    Best R&B Male singer EVER! So happy... feeling blessed to listen to Tevin Campbell's beautiful voice...have been following his music since his recording of "ONE SONG"...came across his new album "Safer on the Ground" and he still HAS that awesome stand alone voice! WOW! What a gift! What a talent! God Bless you Tevin! Looking forward to seeing you on tour hopefully soon! Hopefully BOSTON! WE LOVE YOU!!!!
    Your best fan always! David

  67. D.... W....

    beautiful!!!!!!

  68. M.... I....

    Promotion is key. I consider myself a Tevin Campbell fan but I just found out about this song today, a year after it was released!! I occasionally watch his videos from the 90's on YouTube and not one of them are linked to this release! Gotta use today's marketing strategies and technology to reach old fans and make new ones!

    M.... I....

    Mac Innocent Hit the nail right on the fucking head. I just found out about this song a few weeks ago as well, and you can only find one video of him performing just a sinppit of it. Yes, promotion is everything and I feel that one has to take matters into their own hands when they don't have a big team to handle the promotion side of the business for them. Tevin has a YouTube page; however, has not posted anything in about 2 years, has a twitter that he hopes on every so often, has an Instagrame thats dormant, and I'm sure he has other social media outlets that he's not using to his advantage. I love Tevin, however he's not a big star anymore and need to do a lot of the work thats going to get him back out there. Nevertheless, that won't happen if he's not promoting himself. Lastly, I think there may be some financial problems as well.

    M.... I....

    I just out about this song today! Almost 4 years later smh

  69. N.... ....

    Come on maaaaaan!!! We waiting for this album!! LOVE me some Tev!

  70. G.... R....
