![]() Trouble (2004) [ larger cover art ] |
I guess you don't need it
I guess you don't want me to repeat it
But everything I have to give I'll give to you
It's not like we planned it
You tried to stay, but you could not stand it
To see me shut down slow as though it was an easy thing to do
Listen when all of this around us will fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
Hey
You will shelter me, my love
And I, I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I left you heartbroken
But not until those very words were spoken
Has anybody ever made such a fool outta you
It's hard to believe it
Even as my eyes do see it
The very things that make you live, they're killing you
Listen when all of this around us will fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
Hey
You will shelter me, my love
And I, I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
Listen when all of this around us will fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
Hey
You will shelter me my love
And I, I will shelter you
If you shelter me too
I will shelter you
I will shelter you

| wenatchee (Duvall, WA) | Posted: Mar 31, 2011 - 07:25 . . if you've waded into a relationship where it became "challenging", this begins to resonate more and more for some . . . for me at least. A good piece of music in this one. |

(Actually, I can stand all of Ray's stuff, but this one's a sleeper for me.) |

I hear Cocker, and David Gray, and Nick Drake, and a touch of Damien Rice, too...all good artists, all underappreciated. |
