Jaclyn Beck - Shelter Me Lyrics

Please
Don't turn away from me
I might be ill at ease
It's from these city streets
The freeways go so fast but
No one is free
Emptiness and quiet
Is where I'd rather be

Shelter me
Shelter me
With sunset and water
Shelter me
Shelter me
The deserts holy daughter
Shelter me
Shelter me
The moonlight on my skin
Shelter me
Shelter me
A stillness found within

He traveled the whole world
Met with all walks of life
His words precious pearls
He died in a hotel
His pain never heard
I wore sunglasses that night
Eye contact seemed absurd

Shelter me
Shelter me
Tell me your true story
Shelter me
Shelter me
The deepest one you've buried
Shelter me
Shelter me
Out beyond wrong and right
Shelter me
Shelter me
Where spirits never die

Hold on carefully
Though you might be suffering
All you now feel
Are the waves just crashing
You've fought so hard
To rise high above the sea
So you've got
To find a new way to be free

A new way to be free
A new way to be free
Shelter me
Shelter me
Tell me your true story
Shelter me
Shelter me
A new way to be free
The deepest one you've buried
Shelter me
Shelter me
A new way to be free
Out beyond wrong and right
Shelter me
Shelter me
A new way to be free
Where spirits never die
