On my way back home
Feeling so alone again
When I saw the light was on

And everything was wrong
I thought I knew


In the schoolyard then
I remembered when you smiled
The quiet in your eyes

Still gives me butterflies
You know you do


And all that we've been through
Don't leave me
I wont leave you

And all that we've been through
Be with me
I'll shelter you


And I'm my fathers son
Trying to catch the ones who fall

All the ones you're near
Seem to disappear
No matter what you do


I've been trying to hold it on
Like trying to build a wall with sand

Or a hand full of chards
And the wind is blowing hard
Do you feel it too


And all that we've been through
Don't leave me

I wont leave you
And all that we've been through
Be with me

I'll shelter you

No matter what you do

I'll shelter you

And mother look at me

I am trying to be so strong
And all along I see
Things that shouldn't be

Do you see it too

And all that we've been through

Don't leave me
I wont leave you
And all that we've been through

Be with me
I'll shelter you


No matter what you do
I'll shelter you
No matter what you do

I'll shelter you
I'll shelter you
I'll shelter you

I'll shelter you
