The Hands of Love Lyrics

Fire and foam

Finally home

Tonight the rain abides

I'll cling to you

The whole night through

Like a polar bear to ice

Aubergine before the sea

Another good boy finds you

Salted toes

Queen of the dogs

How the mud imbibes you

And if Paolo comes around

He can have you

I wrote with my pen

It was different then

Care home boy

For late stage amnesiacs

My set is long

With just one song

It's I see you I sing

When I do

And if Paolo comes around

He can have you

I heard your line

It's been on my mind

But it serves both sides

When I come to justify

Your father's gone

I'm sorry son

It's gonna happen

To everyone

And if Paolo comes around

He can have you

To be redeemed at the hands of love

To love and love and never give enough

I honour the ghosts by keeping in love

To love and love and never love enough
