Harm In Your Hand Lyrics by Tanita Tikaram

When the voice says
You should not stumble,
You should not frighten
Or feel so ashamed,
cos all the chores are light
And all the psalms are wiped

When you smash it
Make it easy
When you want to
Stand alone
My friends are praying
For a good soft reason
For a good soft reason
To make them laugh again

Ill make you laugh if you want to
Ill make you smile at the footsteps
Ill make you laugh at the winter
And bring you back down to land
But if you stay on the wrong side
And if you laugh at the sunlight
Im not asking for comfort
Im just after the same
Im just after the same

If you winced then
Why the man wont be coming
If you waste us -
Its what we earned
And if you call souless
About the beginnings
Ill call for easiness
Come back to the world -
Come back in the open
Stand now by the roots life
Come out to show us
Youll be back home again

Now Im not superstitious
About being so alarming
About moving with the changes
About holding your hand
Now I believe when they told me
It was all down to fever
Its all down to the harm thats
The harm thats in your hands
Harm in your hands
Harm in your hands

Now, Im not saying that I want you
Its like taking your chances
Its like hoping for a straight line
When Im falling into space
Im just talking about the license
That Id like you to give me
That Id like you to give me
Command -
Come on dance
Come on dance

Im toting my whole life
And Im toting the good side
And I hope you believe it
When I say - Ill see you through
Theres nobody will ache so much
Nobody will so much
Ache so much for you

Ill make you laugh if you want to
Ill make you smile at the footsteps
Ill make you laugh at the winter
And bring you back down to land
But if you stay on the wrong side
And if you laugh at the sunlight
Im not asking for comfort
Im just after the same
Im just after the same

Now Im not superstitious
About being so alarming
About moving with the changes
About holding your hand
Now I believe when they told me
It was all down to fever
Its all down to the harm thats
The harm thats in your hands
Harm in your hands
Harm in your hands
