When I'm tied to the mast
And the ship's sinking fast
At the height of the storm
Bring the calm
Be my shelter
My dementor-gripped soul
Spirals out of control
Lift me up
Make me whole
Be my shelter
Maybe I can find a new beginning
In the ruins of the old
In a place where losing turns to winning
I'd bet a rainbow load of gold
My meandering mind
Helter-skelters to find
Some way out of this bind
Be my shelter
Maybe I can carve a new tomorrow
From the bark of yesterday
Find a form of words that don't ring hollow
To say what I long to say
Through the darkness till dawn
Give me love make me warm
Keep me safe from all harm
Be my shelter
