Richard Thompson - Dark Hand Over My Heart Lyrics
Becky loved me and I let her
Wish I could have loved her better
On the day we pulled apart
She primed a time-bomb in my heart
Now there's a shadow hiding
Lover of all broken things
Standing waiting in the wings
Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die
Can't give, can't live just to hold back, hold back
There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
There's a dark hand over my heart
There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
You call me fraud and faker
You call me user, taker
You say I throw you scraps
Prove my strength by holding back
But I shine my honour brightly
Swear my allegiance nightly
But through my hands it slips
The same old demons paint their lips
Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die
I can't give, I can't live just to hold back, hold back
There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
There's a dark hand over my heart
There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
There's a dark hand over my heart
There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
There's a dark hand over my heart
Oh there's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
There's a dark hand over my heart
