This track creates a cocoon of warmth, inviting listeners to find solace and peace.

Opening with the soothing lines, “Oh honey I am home / My heart was under water,” the song sets a tone of relief and comfort.

The imagery of a heart once submerged and lost now finding its place is powerful, painting a vivid picture of emotional refuge.

The lyrics, “My feet were always cold / From the concrete floor of everyone’s heart,” reflect a sense of detachment and loneliness.

This coldness transforms into warmth as the song progresses, mirroring the shift from isolation to connection.

The wooden ground they walk upon symbolises a newfound stability and warmth, grounding the listener in a shared experience of finding home in another person.

As the chorus unfolds, “Oh everything is lighter than before,” it captures the essence of liberation that comes with finding emotional shelter.

The repeated reassurance, “Hold onto this feeling now,” serves as a gentle reminder to cherish and preserve the moments of lightness amidst life’s burdens.

The song’s structure is simple yet profoundly effective. It navigates through themes of struggle and relief without unnecessary complexity, making its emotional impact all the more potent.

The line, “life takes tolls / But oh everything is lighter than before,” acknowledges life’s challenges while emphasising the transformative power of love and connection.

In Shelter, I Shiver is an invitation to experience a moment of epiphany, much like his previous work, Quiet Place.

It’s a reminder that sometimes the softest melodies and simplest words can carry the deepest truths, providing a refuge from the stormy weather of life.

I Shiver has crafted a piece that resonates deeply, a calming balm in the form of a song.

Shelter is a serene escape, a place where every note and lyric is a gentle reminder that no matter how heavy the world feels, there is always a corner where everything is lighter than before.

I Shiver Shelter Lyrics

Oh honey I am home 
My heart was under water 
And I didn’t know where I belong 
Until you came along

My feet were always cold 
From the concrete floor of everyone’s heart 
Now everything is warm 
On the wooden ground we walk upon and

Oh 
everything is lighter than 
before 
Hold onto this feeling now

Cause I do know 
life takes tolls
But oh 
Everything is lighter than before 

Honey I am home 
My heart was under pressure 
And I didn’t know where should go
Then you held me close and

the clouds they grew dark 
But we found shelter 
In our hearts 

Oh 
everything is lighter than 
before 
Hold onto this feeling now

Cause I do know 
life takes tolls
But oh 
Everything is lighter than before
