Shelter
(Rafael Gayol)
It's cold outside
As the rain ties me up from the inside
Into a knot of courage
Left for me to decide
Was it just a fluke, a freak accident
Was it just mere coincidence
That this shelter I found
Wasn't so heaven sent?
Taking a first step, bold step
Taking a step aside
Keeps me walking backwards
As if there's nothing to hide
So what's the big idea
Is this where at last you pull the roots
From the shelter that houses
Nothing more than the truth
If we ever meet again
To hug, smile and say
Nice to see you
Wouldn't want to be you
Just like a dolphin
And a donkey on a date
Who would believe you
Well, a promise of love for a lifetime
All I got was this letter
Saying thanks I'll see you next lifetime
By then we should be better
Was it just a fluke, a freak accident
Or just coincidence?
That this shelter I found
Tells me your a freak
So hit the road now
What good is going home
'Cause this shelter you leave me
Is better than being alone
