Lyrics:
In this cold world
No matter where I go the clouds are all the same
To them I'm just
A pebble in the sand a face without a name.
Nobody gives a hang for what I say or do
But you and in the shelter of your arms
I find peace and comfort and care
For I am wanted there

In this cold world
I struggle to survive and sometimes I would fall
You think someone
Would lend a helping hand
They'd sooner see me crawl
But just when life itself seems more than I can bear
You're there and in the shelter of your arms
I find strength and safety and then
I rise and start again

Just give me one good reason to keep in living
To keep on trying for what
I ask you for what
If not for you and all your love to see me through!

When times looked bad
the shelter of your arms
Would keep away each fear
And this cold world
Can never get me down as long as you are near
That's why I pray to God you'll never say goodbye
And i will know the shelter of your arms
And your love for all of my life
Until the day I die
