Shelter From The Storm (Album Version) - Rodney Crowell (duet with Emmylou Harris)[00:00:00]

Written by：Bob Dylan/Rodney Crowell/Peter Coleman[00:00:04]

Twas in another lifetime[00:00:13]

One of toil and blood[00:00:17]

When blackness was a virtue[00:00:20]

And the road was full of mud[00:00:23]

I came in from the wilderness[00:00:26]

A creature void of form[00:00:30]

Come in she said I'll give you[00:00:33]

Shelter from the storm[00:00:36]

And if I pass this way again[00:00:39]

You can rest assured[00:00:43]

I'll always do my best for her[00:00:46]

On that I give my word[00:00:49]

In a world of steal eyed death and men[00:00:52]

Who are fighting to stay warm[00:00:55]

Come in she said I'll give you[00:00:59]

Shelter from the storm[00:01:02]

Not a word was spoke between us[00:01:05]

There was little risk involved[00:01:08]

Everything up to that point had been[00:01:12]

Left unresolved[00:01:16]

Try imagining a place for it is[00:01:18]

Always safe and warm[00:01:22]

Come in I'll give you[00:01:25]

Shelter from the storm[00:01:28]

You were burned out from exhaustion[00:01:31]

Buried in the hail[00:01:34]

Poisoned in the bushes[00:01:38]

Blown out on the trail[00:01:41]

Hunted like a crocodile[00:01:44]

Ravaged in the corn[00:01:48]

Come in I will give[00:01:51]

Shelter from the storm[00:01:54]

Suddenly I turned around[00:01:58]

And she was standin' there[00:02:01]

With silver bracelets on her wrists[00:02:04]

And flowers in her hair[00:02:07]

She walked up to me gracefully[00:02:10]

Took my crown of thorns[00:02:13]

Come in she said[00:02:17]

I'll give you[00:02:18]

Shelter from the storm[00:02:20]

Now there's a wall between us[00:02:23]

Somethin' has been lost[00:02:27]

I took too much for granted[00:02:30]

I got my signals crossed[00:02:33]

Just to think that it all began[00:02:36]

On so long for garden morn[00:02:39]

Come in I said I'll give you[00:02:43]

Shelter from the storm[00:02:46]

Well the deputy walks on hard nails[00:02:51]

The preacher rides a mount[00:02:54]

But nothing really matters much[00:02:57]

It's doom alone that counts[00:03:00]

The one eyed undertaker[00:03:03]

He blows his futile horn[00:03:07]

Come in she said I'll give you[00:03:10]

Shelter from the storm[00:03:13]

I've heard newborn babies wailin'[00:03:47]

Like a mournin' dove[00:03:51]

And old men with their broken teeth[00:03:54]

Stranded without love[00:03:58]

Do I understand your question man[00:04:00]

Is it hopeless and forlorn[00:04:04]

Come in she said I'll give you[00:04:07]

Shelter from the storm[00:04:11]

In a little hilltop village[00:04:13]

They gamble for your clothes[00:04:17]

You'll bargain for salvation[00:04:20]

And they give you a lethal dose[00:04:23]

You'll offer up your innocence[00:04:26]

And get repaid with scorn[00:04:30]

Come in I will give you[00:04:33]

Shelter from the storm[00:04:36]

Now I'm livin' in a foreign country[00:04:41]

But I'm bound to cross the line[00:04:44]

Beauty walks a razor's edge someday[00:04:48]

I'll make it mine[00:04:51]

If I could only turn back the hands of time to[00:04:54]

When you and god were born[00:04:57]

I know that I could give you[00:05:00]

Shelter from the storm[00:05:04]

Come in and I will give you[00:05:07]

Shelter from the storm[00:05:10]
