Shelter Me - Richard Page

Ever since I can remember

I always tried to do what’s right

«Just keep your chin up boy», they said

Don’t you ever try to back down

You gotta fight to get what’s yours

But sometimes the fight just ain’t there

Shelter me I am one who needs another

I’m a book without a cover

Cover me Shelter me, oh Like a child gently sleeping

Like a mother’s vigil keeping

Shelter me Out on a distant lonely highway

So many miles from anywhere

Gonna lay my trouble down

And I never will return now

I don’t need to look back now

Gotta find where love lies somehow

Shelter me, oh I am one who needs another

I’m a book without a cover

Cover me Shelter me, yeah

Like a child gently sleeping

Like a mother’s vigil keeping

Shelter me, yeah

Hold out my hand, I reach for you

I see your light

And I lay my body down

And you rush over me, rush over me Rush over me Shelter me, yeah

I am one who needs another

I’m a book without a cover

Can you see?

Shelter me Like a child gently sleeping

Like a mother’s vigil keeping

Shelter me Shelter me, yeah

I am one who needs another

I’m a book without a cover

Cover me Shelter me, oh Like a child gently sleeping

Like a mother’s vigil keeping

Shelter me Shelter me Like a mother’s vigil keeping, yeah

Shelter me
