Laurence Fox Shelter lyrics

You took a life just to be with her
It's too bad that the life was your own
You saw no good in the beautiful dark
And so you had to call her back

Oh, go home
I'm getting tired
Of hearing where you came from
Know that you've tried so hard
To let her be free
But you're so alone

You leave her no shelter now you know
No one to save her from her storm
But it's so hard
Building a house in the dark

You have a child between you now
I thank God that she's too young to know
Why you don't touch in the dark of the night
And why there's something calling you
Something calling you home

Go home
I'm getting tired

Of hearing where you came from
Know that you've tried so hard
To let her be free
But you're so alone

You leave her no shelter now you know
No one to save her from her storm
But it's so hard
Building a house in the dark

Take all the things that I promised
And build her own for when I'm gone
'Cause I can shelter you no more
There is no peace
From all your storms that rage
'Cause it's so hard
Building a house in the dark
You know that it's so hard
Building a house in the dark

So don't go go
No no no no no
