Avantasia: Shelter From The Rain

(vocals by Tobias Sammet, Michael Kiske and Bob Catley)

(Tobias Sammet:)
Like a wheel I keep on turning
Straight ahead, it's got me burning
The melody The dignity
something is speaking to me
Night is cold and my soul is battered
Not afraid for the first time now that I realize
We coincide I'll never belong to the tribe

And a song is calling me to this ship of fools

(Chorus:)
Been dying for a sign
When faith has been on the line
When you find your love on wasted grounds
You're taking to the sound
It's shelter from the rain

(Michael Kiske:)
No return from the way I've chosen,
Cast away chasing rainbows condemn the lie
And how could I make god believe I'm blind
We create by intuition
Call it fate the tongue of angels in our soul
Feel it resound and carry you over the grind

All that's left is a song giving shelter from the rain

Been dying for a sign
When faith has been on the line
When you find your love on wasted grounds
You're taking to the sound
It's shelter from the rain

(Bob Catley:)
It's a dark and stormy night,
Ain't it funny what it takes to read the signs?
But I'm always there
I am the footprints to your right
Man overlooked when riding high
Young and blind

In your darkest lonely night
Heed a voice to take you higher
Take you higher
As you stumble through the ruins
Let the spirit take you higher
and a song

(Tobias Sammet:)
Oh, and a song
I can hear a song

Been dying for a sign
When faith has been on the line
When you find your love on wasted grounds
You're taking to the sound
It's shelter from the rain

Been dying for a sign
When faith has been on the line
When you find your love on wasted grounds
You're taking to the sound
It's shelter from the rain
