about
This lyric got written at 2 in the morning after a couple of glasses of red wine. It's a little stream of consciousness but I've never felt the desire to change it, which is unusual for me. If you listen carefully at the end you'll hear the open fire crackling away behind me as we finished the piano take...
lyrics
Your Hands Were Made For Working,
Your tension stored but not forgotten.
I talk my chain is turning,
My compass foiled by earthed rock.
Your mind is overthrown,
Your heart is full but not forlorn,
And I am overcome,
And I am going to walk through this one.

Your hands were made for working,
I am no foil no lock of fact.
It is your brain you're burning,
And every word we work is right.
Your eyes are overthrown,
Your heart is beautiful on its own,
And I am overcome,
But I am going to walk through this one.

And every breath you take is more.
And every route you break is born.

I am overthrown,
Your tension is turned but its not forlorn,
And I am overcome,
But I am going to bleed through this one.
