Heal
Locust Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Must have been something in the air
Drifting on a breeze to nowhere
But it's safer in your world
Must of been your gentle soul
Lifting me up into the whirl of it all But
It's safer in your world
Won't you heal it with your love Cease to amaze me
Won't you heal it with you love The essence of you
Won't you heal it with your love
With your precious touch
One spoonful would be enough to hide a wooden eye
One day soon we'll be on top of it and only want to smile
In this room you are not awake
Sell me what you think
One handful would be enough to get a clearer view
One day soon it's gonna happen to happen to you
In this cushioned space you're not alone
Tell me what you think
Must of been your tender words
Showering over like a waterfall
I'd rather be in your world
Must of been your captivating gaze
Taking me away from the craze of it all I'd rather be in your world
Won't you heal it with your love
Cease to amaze me
Won't you heal it with your love
The essence of you
Won't you heal it when it's tough
The presence of you




Won't you heal it with your love
With your precious touch
