《Shelter from the Storm(Take 1)》歌词

[00:00:25] 'Twas in another lifetime one of toil and blood

[00:00:30] When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud

[00:00:34] I come in from the wilderness a creature void of form

[00:00:39] "Come in " she said

[00:00:40] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:00:48] And if I pass this way again you can rest assured

[00:00:51] I'll always do my best for her on that I give my word

[00:00:55] In a world of steel-eyed death and men who are fighting to be warm

[00:01:01] "Come in " she said

[00:01:02] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:01:09] Not a word was spoke between us there was no risk involved

[00:01:13] Nothing up to that point had even been resolved

[00:01:18] Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm

[00:01:22] "Come in " she said

[00:01:23] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:01:34] I was burned out from exhaustion buried in the hail

[00:01:39] Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail

[00:01:43] Hunted like a crocodile ravaged in the corn

[00:01:47] "Come in " she said

[00:01:48] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:02:00] Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there

[00:02:04] With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair

[00:02:08] She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns

[00:02:13] "Come in " she said

[00:02:14] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:02:38] Now the bonds are broken but they can be retied

[00:02:42] By one more journey to the woods the holes where spirits hide

[00:02:46] It's a never ending battle for a peace that's always torn

[00:02:51] "Come in " she said

[00:02:52] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:03:04] Well the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount

[00:03:08] But nothing really matters much it's doom alone that counts

[00:03:13] And the one-eyed undertaker he blows a futile horn

[00:03:17] "Come in " she said

[00:03:18] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:03:29] I've heard newborn babies cryin' like a moanin' dove

[00:03:33] And old men with broken teeth stranded without love

[00:03:37] Do I understand your question man is it hopeless and forlorn

[00:03:41] "Come in " she said

[00:03:43] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:04:04] And now there's a wall between us something else been lost

[00:04:08] I took too much for granted I got my signals crossed

[00:04:12] And just to think it all began on an uneventful morn

[00:04:17] "Come in " she said

[00:04:18] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:04:29] In a little hilltop village they gambled for my clothes

[00:04:33] I bargained for salvation an' she give me a lethal dose

[00:04:37] I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn

[00:04:41] "Come in " she said

[00:04:42] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "

[00:05:03] Well I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line

[00:05:08] Beauty walks on a razor's edge someday I'll make it mine

[00:05:12] If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born

[00:05:16] "Come in " she said

[00:05:17] "I'll give you shelter from the storm "
