Lyrics The Mission

The Mission

Lay Your Hands On Me

A bunt out truck on a desert highway

Frank on the radio doing it My Way

And the sun beats down it is a hundred & ten

And the girl in the back vows “Never Again”

Theres too many bends in the road too many curves

And the way I pout gets on your nerves

Those who hear not the music think the dancer mad

And all I have got to say to you “it is the best time I ever had”

Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Reach out & touch & lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Reach out & touch & lay your hands on me

Wipe the sweat from my fevered brow

Holy Moses I am a sacred cow

Love´sn´t fear love´sn´t possession

And love doesn´t bind with the guilt of transgression

I am breaking the skin of a papier-mache grin

I am only curious I have never been that brave

And I know how it feels with the devil at my heels

To be the sinner that the good Lord never saved

Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Reach out & touch & lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Reach out & touch & lay your hands on me

I have been diving for pearls, now I am coming up for air

Just because I understand doesn´t mean I care

Another bleeding heart messiah a cold savior machine

Selling me absolution as the American dream

You are always there to catch me catch me when I fall

1st a kiss & then & then you want it all

Once I was an angel now my halo is on fire

I am burning up I am shedding skin & I am walking a high tight wire

Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Reach out & touch & lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands on me

Reach out & touch & lay your hands on me
