Shelter - Laurence Fox

You took a life just to be with her

It’s too bad that the life was your own

You saw no good in the beautiful dark and so

You had to call her back

Home, go home

I’m getting tired of hearing where you came from

Know that you’ve tried so hard

To let her be free, but you’re so alone

You leave her no shelter

Now you know

No one to save her from her storms

But it’s so hard building a house in the dark

You have a child between you now

I thank god that she’s too young to know

Why you don’t touch in the dark of the night

And why there’s something calling you, something calling you

Home, go home

I’m getting tired of hearing where you came from

Know that you’ve tried so hard

To let her be free, but you’re so alone

You leave her no shelter

Now you know

No one to save her from her storms

But it’s so hard building a house in the dark

Take all the things that I promised

And build her a home for when I’m gone

Cause I can’t shelter you no more

There is no peace from all you storms that rage

Cause it’s so hard building a house in the dark

You know that it’s so hard building a house in the dark

So don’t go go

No no no, no no
