You know he got the cure

You know he went astray

He used to stay awake

To drive the dreams he had away

He wanted to believe

In the hands of love

Hands of love

 

His head it felt heavy

As he came across the land

Dog started cryin'

Howling wind

In the howling wind

 

He went deeper into black

Deeper into white

He sees the stars shine

Like nails in the night

 

He felt healing, healing

Healing hands of love

Like stars shinin' from above

 

His hand in his pocket

His finger on the the steel

The pistol weighed heavy

His heart he could feel was beating

Beating, beating, beating

Oh my love, my love

My love, my love

 

So hands that build

Can also pull down

Even the hands of love

Even the hands of love
