Shelter from the Storm

Shelter from the Storm - Bob Dylan

It was in another lifetime, one filled with toil and blood

When blackness was a virtue the road was full of mud

I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form

"Come in," she said

"I'll give you shelter from the storm"

 

And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured

I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word

In a world of steel-eyed death and men who are fighting to be warm

"Come in," she said

"I'll give you shelter from the storm"

 

Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved

Everything up to that point had been left unresolved

Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm

"Come in," she said

"I'll give you shelter from the storm"

 

I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail

Poisoned in the bushes and blown out on the trail

Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn

"Come in," she said

"I'll give you shelter from the storm"
