I need you more than rainfall in deserts
Even more than shelter during a storm
And more than the sun provides Earth
I thrive in part from you, giving me life
Like oxygen keeps all us continuing on
To any flower, like a lily in growth
Longing for water and the rising sun
Like that, I also perk up when we talk

I need a safe place to hide and stay
Just for a little while to get away
I’m lucky that you are my Haven
Sheltering me from life’s evilness
On those days that I just need caring
You are my Haven, protecting me
With all there is, you’re all I need
Like a dose of medicine; my Haven

I love you like a wandering, lost soul
Whose finally found their answer
And can now rest, while peaceful
I love you more than I knew I could
Since I thought somebody like you
Was a myth, dream, and impossible
I love the butterflies, as we touch
To the comfort level we’ve accomplished

You’re my safe place to hide, to stay
Just for a little while to get away
I’m lucky that you are my Haven
Sheltering me from life’s evilness
On those days that I just need caring
You are my Haven, protecting me
With all there is, you’re all I need
Every breath I take is a moment

I am waiting for your embrace
Your kiss can cure any distress
I would be lost, I’d be such a mess
And still searching for my Prince
As without you here, by my side
I’d feel incomplete, but now I see
Only your existence within my eyes
I need a safe place to hide and stay

Just for a little while to get away
I’m lucky that you are my Haven
Sheltering me from life’s evilness
On those days that I just need caring
You are my Haven, protecting me
With all there is, you’re all I need
Sometimes I’ve given up on myself
But you greatly have reminded me

That there is hope for everybody
Even this girl at her absolute worse
I no longer feel mistaken or cursed
‘Cause when the bad comes my way…
I’m lucky that you are my Haven
Sheltering me from life’s evilness
With all there is, you’re all I need
Like a dose of medicine; my Haven
