Shelter Lyrics - Solace - Sarah Mclachlan

They're crowded into the smallest spaces 

While outside all of nature cries 

It's known to be cruel and unfair 

But there is no place to hide 

[Chorus] 

Oh I've seen a part of people that I never 

Really want to share 

Oh I've seen a part of people that I never 

Knew was there 

Shelter give them shelter from the coming storm 

Shelter give them shelter from the coming storm 

I can't sleep I'm haunted by their faces 

The sadness in their eyes 

It hurts so much to see them helpless 

It makes me want to cry 

But still there is so much left unanswered 

For so many innocent lives 

The close the doors and are letting nobody in 

And only the strong will survive 

[Chorus] 

I've seen the anger and I've seen all the dreams 

And I've watched an existence torn apart at the seams 

And though I may seem helpless 

I will do all that I can do 

Oh I've seen a part of people that I never really 

Want to share 

Oh I've seen a part of people that I never knew 

Was there 

[Chorus]
