Shelter From The Rain lyrics

[Scarecrow (Tobias Sammet):]

Like a wheel I keep on turning

Straight ahead, it's got me burning

The melody — the dignity,

Something is speaking to me

Night is cold and my soul is battered

Not afraid for the first time now that I realize

We coincide, I'll never belong to the tribe

And a song is calling me to this ship of fools

[Chorus:]

Been dying for a sign when faith has been on the line

When you find your love on wasted grounds

You're taking to the sound,

It's shelter from the rain

[Mentor (Michael Kiske):]

No return from the way I've chosen,

Cast away - chasing rainbows - condemn the lie

And how could I make god believe I am blind?

We create by intuition,

Call it fate — the tongue of angels in our soul

Feel it resound and carry you over the grind

All that's left is a song giving shelter from the rain

[Chorus:]

Been dying for a sign when faith has been on the line

When I find my love on wasted grounds

I'm taking to the sound

It's shelter from the rain

[Conscience (Bob Catley):]

It's a dark and stormy night.

Ain't it funny what it takes to read the signs?

But I am always there,

I am the footprints to your right

Man overlooks when riding high, young and blind

In your darkest lonely night,

Heed a voice to take you higher

Take you higher

As you stumble through the ruins, let the spirit take you higher, and a soul

[Scarecrow (Tobias Sammet):]

Oh, and a song

I can hear a song

[Chorus:]

Been dying for a sign when faith has been on the line

When you find your love on wasted grounds

You're taking to the sound

It's shelter from the rain

Been dying for a sign when faith has been on the line

When I find my love on wasted grounds

I'm taking to the sound

It's shelter from the rain
