The Stranglers - Here lyrics

Of silence in pieces here Voices all disappear Sacred inside Doubled our silhouettes One shape I can't forget Tears the inside Here could be sad if empty hands Were what my head was resting in Consider them protecting Footsteps in paradise Really moving through me now It's cold lay your hands on me Don't look into my eyes I'm burning out the time Here wrapped in all these chains Only scent remains Scares me inside Feels like I'm sinking fast Some moments never last Keep it inside It's just too bad that empty hands Are what my head is resting in I'm rendered unprotected Fool steps in paradise Really moving through me now It's cold don't take your hand from me They look into my eyes I'm burning out the time Footsteps in paradise Fool steps
