Shelter (The xx cover) Lyrics
I find shelter in this way
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear when I say
I have never felt this way
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Can I be, was I there
Felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown whenever you leave
Please teach me gently on how to breathe
And I'll cross oceans like never before
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll send images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear when I say
I have never felt this way
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Oh
Oh
Oh
Felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown whenever you leave
Please teach me gently on how to breathe
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll send images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

To me, it means :
I find shelter with you, I feel protected. Please hear me when I say I never felt this way before.
Maybe I said something wrong, but if you listen to me, I'll explain what I meant and how sorry I am for it.
When we were together, it was like a dream, because it was so perfect. But whenever you leave me, I just want to die. Please come back to me, because you are my remedy.
I'll go across the world if I have to just to be with you again. And this time I'll show you how much I love you.
