Well all right you gave it all up for a dream
Fate proved unkind To lock the door and leave no key You're unsure Well baby I'm scared too When the world crushes you [Chorus] Let me be you're shelter shelter From the storm outside Let me be your shelter shelter From the endless tide Disillusion has an edge so sharp It tears at your soul And leaves a stain upon your heart I need you to wash mine clean You've felt it too And you need me [Chorus] Your struggle with darkness has left you blind I'll light the fire in your eyes [Chorus] Your struggle with darkness has left you blind I'll light the fire in your eyes [Chorus] Let me be your shelter shelter shelter shelter shelter |

It's alright, I'll take you back again I'll take the blame, you mean that much to me baby I forgive you I can't stop this habit anyway I can't stop this habit anyway I can't stop it I need it to breathe Oh baby |

My girlhood among the outlaws
Was salty, bittersweet The things I did, I could just kick myself now Through nights of lousy dreams As visions gather in my head I find it hard to live with the things I did and said But for you, my friend I'd live it all again and love you in the end Anything for you, baby, anything for you If it took those years to get me here I'd do it again for you I took a leap of faith and I stumbled I tried to live outside grace and I was humbled But I'd like to bet if I live to fear regret Then we never would've met Hey, anything for you, baby, anything for you If it took those years to get me here I'd do it again for you So here we are and I don't know what to call it 'Cause love, love is such a funny promise Commitment is impossible, forever is a lie But that still leaves you and I Hey baby, anything for you If it took those years to get me here I'd do it again for you Oh baby, baby, baby, anything for you If it took those years to get me here I'd do it again, do it again Do it again, do it again I'd do it again, do it again Do it again |

Twenty seventh wagon, full of cotton
Was parked outside my chicken shack door I kept my crib covered up in satin In case my baby came around for more Now I feel, Daddy, somethin's not the same Cause there's weeds and there's rust And the roof won't hold the rain I remember better days Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate Now they've chased away all my friends And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence And it says, "This property is condemned" Take me down the Vieux Carre Where a little girl can get a bed or a bite If you should see me coughin' 'round the corner Won't you mix a little sugar with my tonic tonight? I can feel like I'm part of the parade Cause I feel like there's bourbon Slappin' around in my veins I remember better days Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate Now they've chased away all my friends And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence And it says, "This property is condemned" I got a new tiara, Daddy, take me to the Mardi Gras Buy me cotton candy, dress me up in flowers Let me be your baby doll, we can ditch that social worker In and out the swinging doors on Tchoupitoulas Street You may call me jail bait but I ain't too little to take the heat I can feel phantoms blowin' through my brain And I feel like I need someone to make 'em go away, oh I remember better days Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate Now they've chased away all my friends And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence And it says, "This property is condemned" |

At first I was scared when I opened up my head
And the motor that was runnin' was the mind of you I was scared when I looked at my reflection and the shine I saw were the eyes of you I was scared when you touched my lips And the breath I took was a breath that shook me with a shock Like a flame as eternal as a song and the song is you and I I will let you breathe through me I will let you be with me Whenever I'm alone and you're lost out there I can feel you breathe 'cause our lungs we share Whenever I'm alone anytime anywhere I can feel your heart beat 'cause our blood we share I was scared when you came into my room The walls became the sea, your voice was the moon Oh when you rocked me in your arms Like a song, a wave on the tide of you and I I will let you breathe through me I will let you be with me My heart beats your blood Your breath fills my lungs Your heart beats my blood My breath fills your lungs I was scared when you came into my room The walls became the sea, your voice was the moon Oh when you rocked me in your arms Be with me... I will let you breathe through me I will let you... I will let you... I will let you... |

Turning around I see someone
That I thought I used to know You wide eyed in the crowd How does it feel to see the world And not turn cold I wanna hold you And protect you from the change Though I know it's gonna happen anyway Take this veil, I'll dry your eyes In a world like ours you're nobody's child I'm dependin' on you to teach me All the things I forgot I ever knew Baby, you can lean on me I may lean a little too Whatever gets us through And I feel a mountain movin' deep within At the end of the revival we begin Take this veil, it'll dry your eyes In a world like ours, our nobody's child And I feel a mountain movin' deep within At the end of the revival we begin Take this veil, dry these eyes You see me prayin', but I'm nobody's child |

I had angels, a gang of angels by my side
Livin' lucky, golden girl, with an easy ride Little worry, loads of time, yeah Wasn't it enough? Wasn't it, wasn't it enough? Tell me, why wasn't I more grateful? Why wasn't I more grateful?? Why wasn't I Why wasn't I More grateful? When life was sweet When life was sweet Some people want and want and want what they don't have 'Til it keeps 'em awake at night in their bed just twitchin' Some people like to complain about ev'ry little thing Some folks just never stop bitchin' I had a good man, I took him for granted And now I surely surely surely miss him Wasn't it enough? Wasn't it? Wasn't it enough? Tell me, why wasn't I more grateful? Why wasn't I more grateful?? Why wasn't I Why wasn't I More grateful? When life was sweet When life was sweet Why wasn't I, why wasn't I? And it keeps me wonderin' what might have been Keeps me wonderin' what might've been, yeah To the Lord more grateful |
