"Tenderly" lyrics
"Tenderly"
Well I want
Somebody to hold me while I die
A prayer to keep the peace I hold inside
A potter's field with rose petals strewn at our feet
And to beat the blessed Earth with our heart beats
So be still when the darkness closes in
And tremble when the winds lay waste again
Clinging to the dust that stalks the wind
And laying in the dark with our eyes open
And we'll go to sleep again
And our hearts will collide
Well I want
To be there when the shadow bares its skin
To hold you in the Earth's unholy din
While thunder crash and lightning cross the night
And bathe our hallowed eyes in the moonlight
So be still when the silence passes through
And tremble when it pulls me far from you
I'm clinging to your breath that touched the wind
Naked in the dark with our eyes open
And we'll go to sleep again
And our hearts will collide
