Heavy Hands

Making lead out of gold

The only alchemy I know

But ever since you floated in

You got right under my skin

Leaving fingerprints sparkling on my soul

See me standing like a stone

Don't leave me alone but don't you

Let these heavy hands break you're

Butterfly wings when you're flying

So close to me

And you're a blaze of colour

When I'm blind to everything

Take me dancing on the city breeze

Climbing ladders in the rain

I just keep slipping back off again

But you're a little ray of hope and

I'll hold on to the rope just as long

As you keep calling out my name

I'm on my way up to the top

Don't let me drop but don't you

Let these heavy hands break your

Butterfly wings when you're flying so

Close to me

And you're a blaze of colour

When I'm blind to everything

Take me dancing on the city breeze
