Take Shelter Lyrics

See those storm clouds rollin' in
Just like I knew it would begin
Midnight sky at noon today
The shelter's still so far away, oh

And I don't know just what we'll do
I don't know just where we'll go
All I know is we've got to move
All I know is to keep you close

Never been like this before
Storm match a paler horse
Water's red and the sky is black
Take my hand now, don't look back, oh

I don't know just what we'll do
I don't know just where we'll go
All I know is we've got to move
All I know is to keep you close

All I know is to keep you close
All I know is to keep you close

I don't know just what we'll do
I don't know just where we'll go
All I know is we've got to move
All I know is to keep you close, close

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
