Gimme Shelter Lyrics

Gimme Shelter(jagger/richards) the Rolling Stones
as performed by the Sisters of Mercy

Oh, see the storm is threatening
My very life today
If i don't get some shelter
Yeah, i'm gonna fade away
War, children
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
War, children
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Yeah

Oh, see the fire is sweeping
Down through the streets today
Burning like a bright red carpet
Another fool who lost the way
Rape, murder
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Rape, murder
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
yeah
Oh, see the storm is threatening
My very life today
If i don't get some shelter
Yeah, i'm gonna fade away

Love, sisters
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
love, sisters
it's just a shot away
Shot away
Shot away
War, children
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
War, children
it's just a kiss away
Kiss away
Kiss away
Rape, murder
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Rape, murder
It's just a kiss away
Kiss away
Kiss away
(Repeat X3)
War. Children
It's just a kiss away
kiss away
kiss away
