Lyrics

Shelter

You’ve been thinking ‘bout the loneliness
That claws at your soul
Who’s gonna take care of you
When you get sick and old
Thinking ‘bout somebody that someday
You could have been
Reduced to a dream

How can I be really sure
You want me for myself?
And not for what I can give away
And not what you can get
This talk about independence
I don’t really buy
There’s something broken in your eye

Don’t try it
Don’t tell me that you’re looking for love
I don’t buy it
Don’t tell me that you’re looking for love
When you’re looking for

Shelter
Shelter from the storm that is life
Shelter
How can I hang up the phone
When you’re feeling so alone

You are so beautiful
It happens to be true
And your life’s a part of mine
No matter what I do
I’m really not sure whether it’s love or fear I see
These days, when you’re close to me

Don’ try it
Don’t tell me that you’re looking for love
I don’t buy it
Don’t tell me that you’re looking for love
When you’re looking for

Shelter
Shelter from the storm that is life
Shelter
How can I hang up the phone
When you’re feeling so alone

Now we all make decisions that we don’t wanna make
We all gotta take chances
Take chances that we don’t wanna take
And when we lose our way in the night that hope forsakes
We gotta keep straight on ‘til morning

Don’ try it
Don’t tell me that you’re looking for love
I don’t buy it
Don’t tell me that you’re looking for love
When you’re looking for

Shelter
You’re looking for
Shelter from the storm that is life
Shelter
How can I hang up the phone
When you’re feeling so alone
When you’re looking for

Shelter
You’re looking for
Shelter
From the storm that is life
Shelter
How can I hang up the phone
When you’re looking for

Shelter
You’re looking for
Shelter from the storm that is life
Shelter
How can I hang up the phone
When you’re feeling so alone
When you’re looking for
Shelter
