Lay Your Hands

I never felt your hands upon my flesh,
Or the sweet kisses from your lips.
You ne'er showed me love.
You just let it go by like the north wind.

I thought you were the king of my night.
My dreams were dreamless.
I was just a whisper throughout the dark and lonely night.
It�s like my life never had day.
I was a life that killed for the sun.

Without a sound,
This heart that was left in the darkness of the shadows
With a hand that has never touched upon a chest,
Will shiver within the dirt.

My Dear Love,
My heart is all I have to give.
Not even I could touch this soul of mine.
Lay your hand down where I can feel the evasiveness of your life.
