The Affordable Floors - Shelter Lyrics


The Affordable Floors Lyrics

Shelter Lyrics
From the Album: All the Things I Meant to Be (1992)

I don't really need you, and I won't care when we're through,
If I say this enough times love - I'll believe that it's true.
And when the clouds break down - the water will fall,
And wash away my doubt, wash away my resolve.

If there's shame in shelter - I don't mind
Despair brings compassion it - makes us kind
We're not the first to learn that
We're killing time
And I know - we all hope for what we can't have.

Hold to your hope now, Hold to your hope now
Don't go - Don't let - Don't go
Hold to your hope now, Hope is all we have
Take it on faith now, Charity breaks down
Love fails - Don't let - Don't go
Hold to your hope now for hope is all we have.

The fainter your breathing, the louder your heart,
Should we trust only change, love, when all things come apart.
And when the bough breaks down - the cradle will fall
And you ask was it worth it? Yes it was worth it all.

Just like the summers that - fill your head
Just bloom for a moment but your - glad they did
Can't hold onto air love, but oh if we could
And I'll say, How would we know if we're still living?

Hold to your hope now, Hold to your hope now
Don't go - Don't let - Don't go
Hold to your hope now, Hope is all we have
Take it on faith now, Charity breaks down
Love fails - Don't let - Don't go
Hold to your hope now for hope is all we have.

If there's shame in shelter - I don't mind
Despair brings compassion - in our kind
Nothing is fixed here so
We decide
We make up our own circumstances

Hold to your hope now, Hold to your hope now
Don't go - Don't let - Don't go
Hold to your hope now, Hope is all we have
Take it on faith now, Charity breaks down
Love fails - Don't let - Don't go
Hold to your hope now for hope is all we have.
