Lay Your Hands On Me |
Sat in the corner of the garden grill |
With the plastic flowers on the windowsill |
No more miracles, loaves and fishes |
Been so busy with the washing of the dishes |
Reaction level’s much too high, I can do without the stimuli |
I’m living way beyond my ways and means |
Living in the zone of the in-betweens |
I can see the flashes on the frozen ocean |
Static charge of the cold emotion |
Watched on by the distant eyes |
Watched on by the silent, hidden spies |
But still the warmth flows through me And I sense you know me well |
No luck, no golden chances |
No mitigating circumstances now |
It’s only common sense |
There are no accidents around here |
I am willing, lay your hands on me |
I am ready, lay your hands on me |
I believe, lay your hands on me, over me Working in gardens, thornless roses, |
Fat men play with their garden hoses |
Poolside laughter has a cynical bite, |
Sausage speared by the cocktail satellite |
I walk away from from light and sound, |
Down stairways leading underground |
But still the warmth flows through me And I sense you know me well |
It’s only common sense |
There are no accidents around here |
I am willing, lay your hands on me |
I am ready, lay your hands on me |
I believe, lay your hands on me, over me Over me |
