Hymn For You To Sing
Nina Kinert Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Rest
upon this shoulder of mine
This too
shall pass
And I promise
It will be easier this time
I promise
It will be easier this time
I'll have to wait
in the water without you
You'll have to see me
try my luck and fail
But my body
Is still a hymn for you to sing
My body
still a hymn for you to sing
ohhh.
My body
is still a hymn for you to sing
My body

still a hymn for you to
sing
