Boy, it’s been hard.
It feels like I’ve
Been treading on glass.
Help me extract
This sharp shard,
And gimme shelter.
Boy, it’s been so long,
Since I’ve been
Held by my man.
I’ve been singing
A lonely, sad song,
And I need shelter.
Boy, can’t you see,
What this life
Has done to me?
I’ve cried many tears,
And I need to break free.
Please, gimme shelter.
Boy, I need someone
Who can reach out,
And can see the hurt
That’s been done.
Someone who is kind enough
To gimme shelter.
Boy, please say
That this pain,
And discomfort
Will go away.
Please stay,
And gimme shelter.
Gimme shelter.

Boy, it’s been hard.
It feels like I’ve
Been treading on glass.
Help me extract
This sharp shard,
And gimme shelter.
Boy, it’s been so long,
Since I’ve been
Held by my man.
I’ve been singing
A lonely, sad song,
And I need shelter.
Boy, can’t you see,
What this life
Has done to me?
I’ve cried many tears,
And I need to break free.
Please, gimme shelter.
Boy, I need someone
Who can reach out,
And can see the hurt
That’s been done.
Someone who is kind enough
To gimme shelter.
Boy, please say
That this pain,
And discomfort
Will go away.
Please stay,
And gimme shelter.
Gimme shelter.
