SHELTER IN THE HEART
Stan Meissner/Fred Mollin/Jesse Harms
Looking at the morning paper
Trying not to care
Danger signs in troubled times
We've all seen our share
It's been such a struggle lately
We're never eye to eye
Got to get a grip on it now
Cause in the end there's only you and I
We better hold on a little bit tighter
Cause there's nowhere else we can turn
When there's no ending in sight and you're goin under
There'll be a light that shines right through the darkest hour
We can stand up and fight against the rain and thunder
When the world around us falls apart apart
There's shelter in the heart
Everybody needs a candle burning
Some comfort in the dark
The simple truth can be hard to find
So many lovers miss the mark
But we've got something stong enough
To break apart these chains
It takes a lot of love and purpose
If you're gonna rise above the pain
We can't go on hiding anymore
Cause there's so much left to lose
When there's no ending in sight and you're goin under
There'll be a light that shines right through the darkest hour
We can stand up and fight against the rain and thunder
When the world around us falls apart apart
Take shelter in the heart
We've been on this broken road
For far too long
Maybe these aren't the best of times
But somehow we've got to find our way back home
