paula cole - hush, hush, hush (live) lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
i wrote this next song
when i was living in san francisco in the early nineties
and this beautiful young man named steven
uh, i found out he had aids and was dying
and i didn’t know what to do with those feelings
so, like usual, i put them into music

[verse 1]
long white arms losing their strength and form
sixty year man on twenty year old skin
skeleton, your eyes have lost their warmth
and look to your father for some support

[chorus]
hush, hush, hush
says your daddy’s touch
sleep, sleep, sleep
says the hundredth sheep
peace, peace, peace
may you go in peace

[verse 2]
cruel joke, you waited so long to show
the one that you wanted wasn’t a girl
all your life you kept it hidden inside
and now when you step, you stumble, you die
[chorus]
hush, hush, hush
says your daddy’s touch
sleep, sleep, sleep
says the hundredth sheep
peace, peace, peace
may you go in peace

[bridge]
oh, maybe next time you’ll be henry the eighth
wake up tomorrow, alexander the great
open your eyes in a new life again
oh, maybe next time, you’ll be given a chance

[chorus]
oh, hush, hush, hush
hush, hush, hush
hush, hush, hush
hush, hush, hush
oh, hush, hush, hush
oh

[instrumental]
