The Hand That Rocks The Cradle - The Smiths[00:00:01]
Please don't cry[00:00:24]
For the ghost and the storm outside[00:00:28]
Will not invade this sacred shrine[00:00:32]
Nor infiltrate your mind[00:00:37]
My life down I shall lie[00:00:41]
If the bogey-man should try[00:00:45]
To play tricks on your sacred mind[00:00:49]
To tease torment and tantalise[00:00:53]
Wavering shadows loom[00:00:58]
A piano plays in an empty room[00:01:01]
There'll be blood on the cleaver tonight[00:01:06]
And when darknesss lifts and the room is bright[00:01:10]
I'll still be by your side[00:01:14]
For you are all that matters[00:01:18]
And I'll love you to the day I die[00:01:22]
There never need be longing in your eyes[00:01:27]
As long as the hand that rocks the cradle is mine[00:01:35]
Ceiling shadows shimmy by[00:01:43]
And when the wardrobe towers like a beast of prey[00:01:47]
There's sadness in your beautiful eyes[00:01:52]
Oh your untouched unsoiled wonderous eyes[00:01:55]
My life down I shall lie[00:02:00]
Should restless spirits try[00:02:03]
To play tricks on your sacred mind[00:02:08]
I once had a child and it saved my life[00:02:12]
I never even asked his name[00:02:16]
I just looked into his wondrous eyes[00:02:20]
And said:"never never never again"[00:02:24]
And all too soon I did return[00:02:28]
Just like a moth to a flame[00:02:34]
So rattle my bones all over the stones[00:02:36]
I'm only a beggar-man whom nobody owns[00:02:41]
Oh see how words as old as sin[00:02:45]
Fit me like a glove[00:02:50]
I'm here and here I'll stay[00:02:53]
Together we lie together we pray[00:02:58]
There never need be longing in your eyes[00:03:02]
As long as the hand that rocks the cradle is mine[00:03:10]
As long as the hand that rocks the cradle is mine[00:03:18]
Mine[00:03:25]
Climb up on my knee sonny boy[00:03:27]
Although you're only three sonny boy[00:03:35]
You're you're mine[00:03:42]
And your mother she just never knew[00:03:46]
Oh your mother[00:03:51]
As long as long as long[00:03:54]
I did my best for her[00:04:00]
I did my best for her[00:04:04]
As long as long as long as long[00:04:08]
I did my best for her[00:04:16]
I did my best for her[00:04:21]
