Songtext Silver tongue Torres

Silver tongue

My mother told me every breath
Holds the power of life and death
My teachers warned me
Watch what you sing
Whoever's listening will believe

When you serve it up on that silver tongue
When you serve it up on that silver tongue

I hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
I bend with your branches
When they sway

You've sworn you'll never close the circuit
But I can see my will is working
Conviction for breakfast
That's what I keep the hours fed with

I'm Heaven-bent on keeping you smiling
I'm Heaven-bent on keeping you smiling

I hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
I bend with your branches
When they sway
I hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
I bend with your branches
When they sway

You'll stay
You'll stay
You'll stay
You'll stay

I hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
I bend with your branches
When they sway
I hold you with my hands open
But you'll stay
I bend with your branches
When they sway
