Lyrics

There were a lot of things in his touch
Sometimes the slightest whisper, oh, it could hurt so much
I could feel him coming nearer, his little noises and such
Then my man
Would lay his hands
On me
Oh, yes, he would
Oh, he might touch me in a way that a man should
Bring me to passions, mmm, that only he could
Answer some earthly need whenever, when ever he would
When my man
Would lay his hands
On me
Oh
Oh, the kindness and protection
Mmm, the tenderness and the care
When he was happy, ooh, goodness me
But then, when he was scared
Oh, oh, when he was scared
Those hands took on a life, a life undead
They were vicious and they were small
But they were big enough to keep this woman's back
Against the wall
Oh, ah
Oh Lord, I didn't ask for it
Not the love or anything else
Not the years I spent in this world
Of a man that only loved himself
No, I didn't ask for it
Oh God, it's mine now
Those hands are in my mind and my soul
But, Lord, it's you
It's you and me that makes their power
I will pity that, I will pity that beautiful man
And, Lord, I will bless his path
We were both just wounded children
Oh, in a love that, thank God, it didn't last
There's a lot of things, Lord, in your touch
Sometimes your slightest whisper moves me so much
Your grace and your forgiveness, oh, the whole world and such
When my Lord (My Lord)
Lay your hands (Lays his hands on me)
On me
Oh, mm-mm, hm-hm
When my God (My God)
Oh, you rest your gentle, lovin' hands (Lays his hands on me)
On me
