Lyrics Gimme Shelter - 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 me
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
We're getting, we're getting 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

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

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
