Shelter
Our Daughter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your complexities, I could never dream of
I've been shivering
Shivering for your touch
Now that I feel you
Your fire is all that I want
Heartbeats in sync
I'm held here
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
It's been a hard year
Laden with lonesome nights
Wondering if I would find
Safe harbor where I could confide
Who was the lighthouse
Who was the storm
Doesn't matter now
We keep each other warm
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
The way you
You hear me, you see me, you know me
The way you
You lift me, shift me, kiss me
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my shelter, shelter
You are my
