Dead Can Dance – A Design For Living: lyrics

Send me back all the thing she ever wrote
Tell me secrets of her days when she was young
Show me nights when she laughed
So innocent
I`ll be happy
Waiting till they come
Love the people that she smiled upon
Walk with me in streets
Where she once stood
Say if it could be that we once passed like strangers
Long before the love we ever new
`Cause I`ve been longing
For a new world waiting
I`ve been hoping
To be sent
I`ve been picking up
All the love we squandered
Until you
Hold me in your swaying arms again
One day I can see us walking
Arm and arm in sheltered Kelvin way
Talking and tripping and teasing
And heading for the best part of the day
When your head
Falls softly on my pillow
No fear will make you cry or turn you grey
And we will wake
So early in the morning
Knowing you`ll never
Never
Never go away
`Cause I`ve been longing
For a new world waiting
I`ve been hoping
To be sent
I`ve been picking up
All the love we squandered
Until you
Hold me in your swaying arms again
I`ve been longing
For a new world waiting
I`ve been hoping
To be sent
I`ve been picking up
All the love we squandered
Until you
Hold me in your swaying arms again
Until you
Rest me in your swaying arms again
In your arms
In your swaying arms
Your swaying arms
Hold me
Bless me now
Hold me
Hold me now
Hold me hold me hole me
In your arms
Your swaying arms
Your swaying arms
Hold me
