Give Me Shelter

The person to want by your side

is like warmth of a fire when nights are cold.

Seek shelter in the arms of somebody,

even in a crowded space.

I think of you in the early hours,

even from far away.

We're all happy and lonely

even in the silence.

Hope will fly because

wings never really break.

Beyond the sea and sand,

I continue to carry her heart.

A bird soaring high

to cast away all the doubts.

It takes time for you to

find your feet, have a soft landing.

[John the Baptist]

I can't decide whether this one is consolation offered to another, or one trying to bear up in the face of a recent breakup or loss. Either way, the theme seems to be one of hope in a time of trouble.
