Shelter (Live At The BBC-Manchester University 23/3/91)

Corrinne May

What's wrong, whats getting you down

Is it something I might have said?

You're walking around

with your head to the ground

and your eyes are watery red

I know you've been through rough times

Kicked around, thrown to the ground

but you've always been the strong one

So don't tell me that nobody gets you

'cause I'm standing in your corner

Knocking at tour door

You don't have to be alone

Just call my name

Let me be an answer

'cause it hurts me to see you this way

I wanna ease your pain

Help me understand

Let me be your shelter my friend

We share a bond

You and I we belong

We're like coffee and morning trains

You strip my defenses

I catch your pretenses

The same blood runs through our veins

I swore I'd be your lifeline

Made a vow that I'd surround you with love at every milestone

I'll listen when nobody gets you

I'm still standing in your corner

Waiting by your door

You don't have to be alone

Just call my name

Let me be an answer

'cause it hurts me to see you this way

I wanna ease your pain

Help me understand

Let me be your shelter my friend

It was not too long ago

You sought to understand

You helped me mend

Remember when

So promise me you'll

Call my name

Let me be an answer

'cause it hurts me to see you this way

I wanna ease your pain

Help me understand

Let my be your shelter my friend

Fin.
