MJ Cole - Shelter Lyrics

You're Burned into my memory
Floating down a neon road
Your head screwed on the wrong way round
Peering down the end of your nose

I put it on plate for you
I said I would wait for you
Bared my soul for all to see
You flew straight over my shoulder
You were never looking at me

Though you will never be my shelter
From wind and rain ice and snow
From all the things that life can throw

I'll be your Sanctuary
(Even)though you're not there for me
I'll be your Sanctuary
Cos no one else will be

I'll Roll my eyes into my head
So the sallow white will show
I think I'll live in here instead
A dream where I can be in control

Where I can be alone with you
Share a home with you
How it was always meant to be
Somewhere we could grow older
Two raindrops lost to the sea
