Horslips Sword Of Light Lyrics

Use both your hands to hold me
Tight! Tighter than you should
My heart is cold as steel
But my body's flesh and blood
Walking hand in hand with silver
Close as gold to kiss
Only lovers left alive
And they're swallowed in the mist

I'm your Sword of Light
Won't you be mine tonight
I'm your Sword of Light tonight
Going to scorch you deep inside
Make you glad to be alive
Because I'm your Sword of Light

Wrap tight your cloak around me
And I'll whisper close my dreams
My home is such a long way
And I'm older than I seem
I've come a long way with the good news;
I know you need my help
But don't ask me to be your guide I'm a stranger here myself

I'm your Sword of Light
Won't you be mine tonight
I'm your Sword of Light tonight
Going to scorch you deep inside
Make you glad to be alive
Because I'm your Sword of Light

Use both your hands to hold me
Tight! and tighter should
My heart is cold as steel
But my body's flesh and blood
Walking hand in hand with silver
Close as gold to kiss
Only lovers left alive
And they're swallowed in the mist

I'm your Sword of Light
Won't you be mine tonight
I'm your Sword of Light tonight
Going to scorch you deep inside
Make you glad to be alive
Because I'm your Sword of Light
