lyrics

A question for a thought - is there any word
I ought to say before I turn to you?
Can you recommend a line, a sentence
pure and fine, or a simple word of truth?
My hands are too cold to hold you
But breathe my body back into life.
Damn your concern
Give me warmth and give me light.

Kiss it better, kiss it worse - is my body
Blessed or cursed under your command?
Your free to fill this mind - an empty space
With no design to hinder a giving hand.
My heart is too sad to love you
But breathe my spirit back into life
Damn your concern
Give me shelter, give me light.

Now this morning is near at hand I could not know
where to stand between your loving and my life
So could you recommend a place - somewhere far
Without a trace of the shame that turns the day to night?
My head is too proud to show you
But breathe my senses back into life
Damn your concern
Give me freedom, give me light.

My heart is too sad to love you
But breathe my spirit back into life
Bless your concern
Give me peace, give me light.
