| 作词 : Ian | |
| His hands were made of lightning | |
| His fingers were the wind | |
| They reached into my heart | |
| And let me love again | |
| His touch was made for pleasure | |
| So good it seemed a sin | |
| Stroking my soul, keeping me whole | |
| Till I gave myself to him | |
| His hands, they never hit me sober | |
| His hands, they never marked my face | |
| I would rather be blind | |
| Than see him treat me that way | |
| I would rather be deaf | |
| Than hear that sound like a pistol cracking | |
| As the spirit breaks | |
| And loves comes tumbling down | |
| He learned it from his father | |
| And from his father's wife | |
| He learned from the preacher | |
| Who told her they were married for life | |
| And if I'd had his children | |
| They might have learned from me | |
| I finally ran when I saw that his hands | |
| Would sign that legacy | |
| He said, "I've broken stallions | |
| I've broken mares too | |
| Given time, and the right frame of mind | |
| I swear, I'll break you" | |
| So, come on you pretty women | |
| Who think that you're too smart | |
| And learn from one who loved a damaged heart | |
| There are some things you can gamble | |
| There are some things you can change | |
| But you can't change a man with the law in his hand | |
| It's like trying to drown the rain | |
| His hands, would never hit me sober | |
| His hands, would never mark my face | |
| They would rather be blind | |
| Then to treat me that way | |
| They would rather be deaf | |
| Than to hear that sound like a pistol cracking | |
| As the spirit breaks | |
| And love comes tumblin' down | |
| Tumblin' down, tumblin' down |
