Nightjacket - Hand on My Heart Lyrics

We got our start on the silver street
With all the sages and palms
And in the day we lie down to sleep
With the turntable on

And when you went on your way
I didn't ask you to stay

We made our way to the kingdom keep
Fall into beauty and gold
We drink the wine and blow the smoke
Fill up the empty & cold

But when you went on your way
I couldn't ask you to stay

Hey, got my hand on my heart hope to die
You've got your mind and your eyes on the sky
Yeah, hold your hand to my heart hope to die
I'll keep your head and your heart in the sky

I made my way on the silver street
I walk from dusk to the dawn
Without you here I will never sleep
I keep the dream moving on

And when you come back my way
I'll hope that this time you'll stay

Hey, got my hand on my heart hope to die
You've got your mind and your eyes on the sky
Yeah, hold your hand to my heart hope to die
I'll keep your head and your heart in the sky

Friend or foe
I held my hand out for you
And with the same breath I took before
I said- I'd never leave you

Hey, got my hand on my heart hope to die
You've got your mind and your eyes on the sky
Yeah, hold your hand to my heart hope to die
I'll keep your head and your heart in the sky
