"Shelter Me" lyrics

"Shelter Me"
(from "Downtown Owl" soundtrack)

I wanna tell you something
It's on the tip of my tongue
You can never go back home
Once you been on the road

Shelter me
Give me what I want
Take me as I am
And let me be
Shelter me

Nothing ever comes easy
The going gets so tough
But why you wanna hurt me so bad?
'Cause you know I like it rough

Shelter me
Give me what I want
Take me as I am
And let me be
Shelter me

There's time for one more round
Just to drown the grief
I got one match left
Hanging by the skin of my teeth

Shelter me
Shelter me

Turn the lights back on
Screaming out last call
But it's never gonna be enough
If you always gonna have it all

Shelter me
Give me what I want
Take me as I am
And let me be
Shelter me
Give me what I want
Take me as I am
And let me be
Shelter me

Shelter me
Shelter me
