About

“Shelter” is the kind of track that launched the xx into a global phenomenon. Romy’s lyrical longing to right her perceived “wrong” is heart-wrenching. When it’s set to the stark, distant electronica and skittery guitar the message is further enhanced.

The track was covered multiple times, notably...

Shelter Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I find shelter in this way
Under cover hideaway
Can you hear when I say
"I have never felt this way"?

[Chorus]
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?

[Verse 2]
Could I be, was I there?
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown whenever you leave
Please teach me gently how to breathe

[Interlude]
And I'll cross oceans like never before
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll mirror images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too

[Chorus]
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?

[Chorus]
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?

[Outro]
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on?
