Shelter In The Rain - Irma Thomas

When the lights are down

And the stage is bare

And no more magic’s in the air

There’s not a friend in sight to care

Your tears no one will share

I’ll be your comfort through your pain

I’ll be your shelter in the rain

When your sad is bad and your bad is worst

And there’s no who to turn to first

When you’ve done everything you can

No one’s there to take your hand

I’ll be you comfort through your pain

I’ll be your shelter in the rain

When you’ve looked around

And haven’t seen me anywhere

Though when you were down

I lifted you up from there

There isn’t a thing you can ask of me

I won’t do Just you put your trust in me My love will see you through

When the final candle’s flickered out

«Why me"is all you can think about

When all your joy has disappeared

Your future isn’t clear

I’ll be you comfort through your pain

I’ll be your shelter in the rain

When all the odds say there’s no chance

Amidst the final dance

I’ll be you comfort through your pain

I’ll be your shelter in the rain

I’ll be you comfort through your pain

Yes, I’ll be your shelter in the rain, rain

I’ll be your shelter,

Be your shelter, be your shelter in the rain
