I hear: "And you're safe" instead of "and you say" also "so just as sure as every parting word comes stuttering off every parting tongue"
I love this song. To me it's about an affair she keeps coming back to. "Can we forget about the truth"...can we forget about the fact that he's married. "If salvation never takes our hands, we'll dance around the wreckage"...if they never do the right thing and end it, they'll dance around the wreckage of a broken marriage.
