Love Spreads Lyrics
The Stone Roses
Lyrics
Love spreads her arms, waits there for the nails
I forgive you, boy, I will prevail
Too much to take, come cross to bear
I'm hiding in the trees with a picnic, she's over there, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She didn't scream, she didn't make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they're hurting her again
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
I have a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, she's alright, she's my sister
She didn't scream, she didn't make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they're hurting her again
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen
I had a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, say she's alright, yea, she's my sister
