Jimmy Cliff
Shelter of your love - single version
How I survived, Oh, I dont know
Still I'm glad to say, I'm still here today
I tried to pretend, but it was just a show
Now I, I just can't hide. I had to swallow my pride
And I had to:
Run for the shelter of your love. (x4)
You know I'm a man, I dont like to brag
But it's been cold and empty out here, it's been a drag
A man dont fight and run away. He will live to fight another day
Well it's these words I sing that keeps me holding on today
I know that I can:
Run for the shelter of your love. (x4)
The shelter of your love. (Longing for the shelter of your love.)
The shelter of your love. (Talking 'bout the shelter of your love.)
The shelter of your love
I know that I can:
Run for the shelter of your love. (That's what kept me holding on so strong.)
Run for the shelter (So strong, so long.)
Run for the shelter of your love
Run for the shelter of your love
Shelter of your love (talking 'bout the shelter of your love)
The Shelter of your love (fade)
