TORRES - Silver Tongue

My mother told me every breath
Holds the power of life and death
My teachers warned me
Watch what you sing
Whoever's listening will believe
Where can you suffer them
All behind that silver tongue
Where can you suffer them
All behind that silver tongue

I'll hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
Hide beneath your branches
When they sway

You've sworn you'll never close the circuit
But I can see my will is working
Conviction for breakfast
That's what I keep the hours fed with

I'm heaven bent on keeping
You smiling
I'm heaven bent on keeping
You smiling

I'll hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
Hide beneath your branches
When they sway

I'll hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
Hide beneath your branches
When they sway

You'll stay
You'll stay
You'll stay
You'll stay

I'll hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
Hide beneath your branches
When they sway

I'll hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
Hide beneath your branches
When they sway
