Through Your Hands Lyrics - David Crosby

You were dreaming on a park bench 

About a broad highway somewhere 

When the music from the carillon 

Seemed to hurl your heart out there 

Past the scientific darkness 

Past the fireflies that float 

To an angel bending down 

To wrap you in her warmest cloak 

And you ask "What am I not doing?" 

She says "Your voice cannot command" 

She says, "In time you will move mountains 

And it will come through your hands"

Still you angle for an option 

Still you argue for your case 

Like you wouldn't know a burning bush 

Till it blew up in your face 

We dream about the future 

We memorize the past 

When just a simple reaching out 

Could build a bridge that lasts 

And you ask "What am I not doing?" 

She says "Your voice cannot command" 

"In time you will move mountains 

And it will come through your hands"

So whatever your hands find to do 

You must do with all your heart 

There are thoughts enough to blow men's minds 

And tear great worlds apart 

There's a healing touch to find you 

Out on that broad highway somewhere 

Gonna lift you as high as music 

Running through an angel's hair 

And don't worry what you are not doing 

Cause your voice cannot command 

And in time you will move mountains 

And it will come through your hands 

Through your hands 

Through your hands 

Mmm
