Human Hands |
I’ve been talking to the wall and it’s been answering me |
Oh darling how I miss you |
I’m just the mere shadow of my former selfishness |
I crave the silhouette of your kiss |
With only the blue light of the TV on |
Lip reading threats and false alarms |
There’s a boy somewhere holding hands with himself |
And a girl in a window on the Reeperbahn |
Whenever I put my foot in my mouth and you begin to doubt |
That it’s you that I’m dreaming about |
Do I have to draw you a diagram? |
All I ever want is just to fall into your human hands |
With the kings and queens of the dance hall craze |
Checkmate in three moves in your heyday |
But the girls don’t listen to your line anymore |
Now you’re part of someone else |
On the factory floor and you still say «Wheres the action?» |
Now you manufacture happiness |
And get sold on the cheap for someone’s satisfaction |
Whenever I put my foot in my mouth and you begin to doubt |
That it’s you that I’m dreaming about |
Do I have to draw you a diagram? |
All I ever want is just to fall into your human hands |
All you toy soldiers and scaremongers |
Are you living in this world sometimes I wonder |
In between saying you’ve seen too much |
And saying you’ve seen it all before |
Tighter and tighter I hold you tightly |
You know I love you more than slightly |
Although I’ve never said it like this before |
Whenever I put my foot in my mouth and you begin to doubt |
That it’s you that I’m dreaming about |
Do I have to draw you a diagram? |
All I ever want is just to fall into your human hands |
All I ever want is just to fall into your human hands |
