Lyrics for "Pale Shelter"

How can I be sure ?
When your intrusion
Is my illusion
How can I be sure
When all the time
You change my mind

I asked for more and more
How can I be sure

When you don't give me love
(You gave me pale shelter)
You don't give me love
(You give me cold hands)
And I can't operate on this failure
When all I want to be is
(Completely in command)

How can I be sure
For all you say
You keep me waiting
How can I be sure
When all you do
Is see me through

I asked for more and more
How can I be sure

When you don't give me love
(You gave me pale shelter)
You don't give me love
(You give me cold hands)
And I can't operate on this failure
When all I want to be is
(Completely in command)

I've been here before
There is no why
No need to try
I thought you had it all
I'm calling you
I'm calling you

I ask for more and more
(Ask for more and more)
How can I be sure
(How can I be sure)

When you don't give me love
(You gave me pale shelter)
You don't give me love
(You give me cold hands)
And I can't operate on this failure
When all I want to be is
(Completely in command)

You don't give me love
You don't give me love
You don't give me love
