On a dead grey day
When the sun and all the pretty girls
Are hidden away
And the wind from the sea
Screams up the street
And pummels me
I wind my weary way
To a place where the friendly souls
All know my face
And She
She
She takes care of me
She knows what I need
And she gives it to me
(I drink it deep)
Whatever I need she
(With a smile she gives to me)
Whoever I need to be
(She indulges me)
I drink it deep
(With a smile she gives to me)
It washes me clean
(She gives me all I need)
As the grey day wanes
And the warmth of the sanctuary
Fills my veins
I steal myself away
Past the feet of the bodies
On the homeless beat
And return to my place
Dreaming of the shelter
Where she knows my face
Oh She
She
She takes care of me
Oh She
She
She gives me what I need
