SHELTER

[Verse 1] They came to me With tired eyes Carrying storms Through endless nights I held the weight I shared the pain I lit a fire Against the rain [Chorus] I was your shelter Through the rain A place to hide From all your pain But when my sky Began to break No one was there To ease the ache I dried your tears For all those years But when mine fell No one came near No hand reached out No voice, no sign So I wiped them away With these hands of mine [Verse 2] The years rolled on Like falling snow The faces changed The winds would blow My door stayed open My lamp still shone Yet when I needed I stood alone I was your shelter Through the rain A place to hide From all your pain But when my sky Began to break No one was there To ease the ache I dried your tears For all those years But when mine fell No one came near Maybe the stars Know how it feels To shine for all Yet never heal Maybe some hearts Were born to mend While breaking slowly In the end I was your shelter Through the rain Though all my walls Were washed away I'd build them all Again someday I dried your tears For all those years But when mine fell No one came near No hand reached out No voice, no sign So I wiped them away... With these hands of mine I was your shelter Through the rain When no one came, I stayed.
