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 herebaby

But I found the holy grail all right

'cause I'm lying in your arms tonight

Yeah....



[chorus]



Lay your healing hands on me....
