Pale Shelter Lyrics

[Verse 1: Curt Smith]
How can I be sure
When your intrusion's my illusion?
How can I be sure
When all the time you change my mind?
I ask for more and more
How can I be sure?

[Chorus: Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal]
When you don't give me love
You give 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 wanna be is
Completely in command

[Verse 2: Curt Smith]
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 ask for more and more
How can I be sure?

[Chorus: Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal]
When you don't give me love
You give 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 wanna be is
Completely in command

[Verse 3: Curt Smith]
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 (I ask for more and more)
How can I be sure? (How can I be sure?)

[Chorus: Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal]
When you don't give me love
You give 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 wanna be is
Completely in command (Completely in command)

[Outro: Curt Smith]
You don't give me love, you don't give me love
You don't give me love, you don't give me love
You don't give me love, you don't give me love
