Songs for the Philippines - Shelter from the Storm Lyrics

  • I was 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 and 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 standing 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 something 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 wailing like a mourning 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 and 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 living 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".
