Chris Whitley — Weightless lyrics

Lyrics

The ground gives as you go With all them secrets that you know
As if to give nothing away
Of the signals you obey
You’re weightless as a child
Falling from above
Are helpless to your size
Lonelier than God
Footsteps, empty room
As if a temple or a tomb
The bed gives where you lay
As if a power you betray
You’re weightless as a child
Falling from above
Are helpless to your size
Lonelier than God
Lonelier than God
Falling from above
You’re weightless as a child
Are helpless to your love
No one can hold you now
No one
When you was a child
Falling from above
Are helpless to your size
Lonelier than God
Lonelier than God
Falling from above
Weightless as a child
Are helpless to your love
Are helpless to your lover
Are helpless to your lover
