LOVE TRIED TO WELCOME ME
(Madonna/Dalas
Austin/ Anne Preven/Scott Culter/Herbie Hancock)
These are my
hands
But what can they they give me?
These are my eyes
But they cannot see
These are my arms
But they don't know tenderness
And I must confess
That I am usually drawn to sadness
And loneliness has never been a stranger
To me
Love
tried to welcome me
But my soul drew back
Guilty of lust and sin
Love tried to take me in
These
are my lips
But they whisper sorrow
This is my voice
But it's telling lies
I know how to laugh
But I don't know happiness
And I must confess
Instead of spring - it's always winter
And my heart has always been
A lonely hunter
Love
tried to welcome me
But my soul drew back
Covered with dust and sin
Love tried to take me in
Love tried to break me...
And
I must confess
Instead of spring - it's always winter
And my heart has always been
A lonely hunter
Love
tried to welcome me
But my soul drew back
I was guilty of lust and sin
Love tried to take me in
Love
tried to welcome me
But my soul drew back
Covered with dust and sin
Love tried to take me in
Love tried to break me
But my soul drew back
Covered
with dust
Covered with sorrow
Covered you mean
Still
Love tried to welcome me
But my soul drew back
Covered with dust and sin
Love tried to take me in
Love tried to break me
Love tried to welcome me
