shelter from the storm
Shelter From The Storm ´Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured I´ll always do my best for her, on that I give my word In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved Everything up to that point had been left unresolved. Try imagining a place where it´s always safe and warm. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail, Poisoned in the bushes an´ blown out on the trail, Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." Suddenly I turned around and she was standin´ there With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair. She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." Now there´s a wall between us, somethin´ there´s been lost I took too much for granted, got my signals crossed. Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount But nothing really matters much, it´s doom alone that counts And the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." I´ve heard newborn babies wailin´ like a mournin´ dove And old men with broken teeth stranded without love. Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn? "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes I bargained for salvation an´ they gave me a lethal dose. I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." Well, I´m livin´ in a foreign country but I´m bound to cross the line Beauty walks a razor´s edge, someday I´ll make it mine. If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born. "Come in," she said, "I´ll give you shelter from the storm." shelter from the storm aciklamasi shelter from the storm indir shelter from the storm izle shelter from the storm resmi |
