tonight i cried the tears of a child
who knows what fear runs deep and wild
inside
but the river´s in flood tonight

i lay down and the light streamed across my face
i felt the beauty of some deeper grace
and i tried
to find my way to the other side

i feel your skin as smooth as silk
drunk like a baby on his mama´s milk
take me down under the wishing tree
lay your healing hands on me

been a long time riding this deserted train
there´s no messiahs out here, baby
but i found the holy grail all right
´cause i´m lying in your arms tonight
yeah....

[chorus]

lay your healing hands on me....
