Hue & Cry - Violently

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 and stumbling around
Then you brought me near

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, into your hands

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, into your hands
Into your hands
Oh, violently, violently
And now I broke into your hands
Into your hands
Give me your hand
