Violently (Your Words Hit Me) (Acappella) - Hue & Cry

Completely untouchable, I knew no surprises

Wrapped in a cold world of my own devising

But I heard you smashing and swinging hard outside

Saw your sweet face and I nearly died, I nearly died

Violently you came to me

Said I could be

A different man, a different man

Violently your words hit me

And I broke gently into your hands

A frozen survivor, all brittle and hateful

I’m uncomprehending — who would want this fool?

But you chipped away until some poor soul appeared

Shivering, trembling, stumbling around

Then you brought me near…

Violently, violently

I broke into your hands

Into your hands

Give me your hand
