HEATHER NOVA - Women’s Hands lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Women’s Hands turning me back to the water now

Going deep, Head spurred all on the rocks

My heart and my mouth back at ____(?)

(Chorus)

When she cracks we open I can see

Paints the picture bigger for me

(Verse 2)

Women’s Hands, feels like the road is crumbling

Feels like I carry on, carry on

Feel like she's turned up a fire

There's only purity, familiarity, ancient history

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I see mosaics on the walls

All the little pieces

Glistening, in Italian churches

Francansainse, and cold stone

And the Mother, and the Virgin

And the innocent

And the innocence's lost

The shame that makes it's way

Into ourselves so that our bodies

Begins to doubt, putting out the fairy lights

So that it's hard to embrace

And we become a single wing

Flapping in circles of self-denial

And self-loathing, but then I remember

I remember

(Interlude)

We came in with the lights

We came in with the lights

And I'm getting a grip

Out of the darkness

Across the years, to my solar plexus

Bathed in your light, I'm finding a place

A hidden sea, I see myself

Moving in sunlight, not yet bloomed

Dancing, shy heart crystallizing crystallizing

But I can see that it is perfect

And I can see that I am perfect

Here, beneath my trembling chest

Here, beneath it all

Despite the fall

Grace, truth, beauty, love

Grace, truth, beauty, love

We have it all

We have it all

(Chorus)
