I remember the feeling at ten years old
How the world had a magic and a shining gold
I don't want to forget it as I grow old
Can you help me to hold it within my bones
Cause everybody feels wounded and weak sometimes
Everyone needs some shelter on the colder nights
Everybody is searching for the guiding light
Oh life is a scramble, just to get it right
But darling I don't mind which way we go
We can climb to the great unknown
And I don't see no signs pointing us back home
Just a hand to hold, when it's hard to know
Did we get it right
Was it worth the fight
I don't remember
How to feel sometimes
But as the years roll by
I will always try
Just to be your shelter
On the colder nights
On the colder nights
Everyone seeks a purpose, to make them whole
Like a flint to the fire within their soul
Reaching out for the planets or the ancient scrolls
Listening hard for a message in the howling snow
And darling nobody's perfect, from start to end
Everyone has a weakness, they can't defend
No one has all the answers, though they may pretend
Oh life is a bastard, do you need a friend
Darling I don't mind which way we go
No we can climb to the great unknown
And I don't see no signs pointing us back home
Just a hand to hold, when it's hard to know
Did we get it right
Was it worth the fight
I don't remember
How to feel sometimes
But as the years roll by
I will always try
Just to be your shelter
On the colder nights
On the colder nights
Did we get it right
Was it worth the fight
I don't remember
How to feel sometimes
But as the years roll by
I will always try
Just to be your shelter
On the colder nights
Did we get it right
Was it worth the fight
I don't remember
How to feel sometimes
But as the years roll by
I will always try
Just to be your shelter
On the colder nights
