Lyrics This Body - Heather Nova

This Body

The world outside can’t describe my inner life
The river’s long, the road rolls on in my inner life
I know you’re a good man, but you can only guess
This body has traveled on, this body is fine and strong
This body has given life, nurtured and sacrificed
This body has done so much, this body needs your touch
All I want is a little tenderness
A warm embrace to wake up my senses
I just want a caring hand, I want you to understand
That this body has traveled on, this body is fine and strong
This body has given life, nurtured and sacrificed
This body has done so much, this body needs your touch
This is sacred ground, waiting here to be found
This body has traveled on, this body is fine and strong
This body has given life, nurtured and sacrificed
This body has done so much, this body needs your touch
