The Shelter of My Love

When you have nothing to lose
no one dear and no one to care for
no one sees you but I do
I'll take you in
I won't let you go

Oh the middle of the night
black as tar and eager to hold you
just as pretty as my love
just as hungry
just as eternal

Oh shelter of my faith
oh the peril, oh the weight
Mighty glorious
the shelter of my faith
Oh shelter of my trust
oh the longing, oh the lust
Gold help you if you lost the shelter of my trust

When you have no bridge to burn
no place to go, no place to return to
No one loves you like I do
I love you
I love you
I love you

I love you like no one else
I will never take you for granted
All you need to do my love
Never forget I love you
I love you

Oh shelter of my faith
oh the peril, oh the weight
Mighty glorious
the shelter of my faith
Oh shelter of my love
never mind what it's made of
Gold help you should you lose the shelter of my love

When you have nothing to lose
and nightfall comes, eager to hold you
No one loves you like I do
I love you
I love you
I love you

Oh shelter of my faith
oh the peril, oh the weight
Mighty glorious
the shelter of my faith
Oh shelter of my trust
oh the longing, oh the lust
Gold help you if you lost the shelter of my trust
