Shelter Song
Temples Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You came on over to me
Late night
We shared a drink or three
Night night
I read a proverb to you
That night
She left a room with a view
Take all the time
Time that you want to
Make up your mind
Mind how you go
Take me in time
Time to the music
Take me away to the twilight zone
Last night
We stayed up late in a dream
My oh my
We read a play with no theme
Lifetime
In which our love pursues
My time
In which I spend with you
Now I know the lonely days are gone
Dont you know that I can see
Like a summer day thats always long
We repel the wet of tears
As the shadows lighten up the day
Through the cons we laugh away
Like a windy day thats always wrong
We take shelter where we can
Last night
I came on over to you
My oh my
We played a song or two
Lifetime
I read a poem aloud
My time
I wrote a song for thee
Now I know the lonely days are gone
Dont you know that I can see
Like a summer day thats always long
We repel the wet of tears
As the shadows lighten up the day
Through the cons we laugh away
Like a windy day thats always wrong
We take shelter where we can
The lyrics to "Shelter Song" by Temples express the comfort and joy found in the company of a loved one. The song describes a romantic connection between two people who spend time together, share drinks, read and write to each other, and find solace in each other's company. The refrain "take me away to the twilight zone" suggests that the relationship is an escape from the demands of the outside world.
The second verse seems to emphasize the passage of time and the continuity of love. The two share a dream, read a play with no theme, and pursue a lifetime of love together. The lines "Now I know the lonely days are gone / Don't you know that I can see / Like a summer day that's always long / We repel the wet of tears" express a sense of relief and a newfound happiness. The reference to "shelter" in the chorus reinforces the theme of finding security in love.
Overall, "Shelter Song" presents a romanticized view of a relationship where two people find meaning and happiness in each other's company. The lyrics suggest that love can be a refuge from the stresses of life and a source of comfort in difficult times.
