In “Shelter” Dermot Kennedy speaks to someone he loves about being a shelter for them in a “cold night”, which is a reference to either a season of difficulty or struggle in their lives.

So step inside
'Cause that night is cold, it don't deserve such a smile
And it's not enough
For it to show up every once in a while
In the moonlight, I should
Kiss you at Samhain, throw it all down
Wouldn't that be cool?
To kill the guard, open the gates, for feelings unbound
But I've been keeping hope
And I've got a fairy tale in my heart, I can cope
But I've been keeping hope
I bet they had you in mind when naming the rose
Only know 'bout how I won't be here later
And don't forget, 'bout how she had you feeling major
And he tried to write down how he felt 'bout the girl
Kept running out of paper, he'll wait for her
He was feeling fucking awesome
Be a good man like you taught him
Don't get caught up in caution when love exists
So step inside
'Cause that night is cold, it don't deserve such a smile
We'll be alright
I could never lie about caring a lot
