Talis Kimberley - Prayer For Santa Lucia lyrics

She is hiding joy inside her But for now she's telling no-one She goes about her business And her thoughts are full of someone And she prays to Santa Lucia For the saint was always gentle And she tells her body's secrets And she lights a hopeful candle with a prayer... She remembers all the phrases That he used on her so sweetly And she cherishes the echo Of his hands upon her body And she shuts her eyes to conjure him Imagines he's beside her And she whispers words forbidden And her blood turns fire within her at his name And she cries 'you know I'm drowning In his eyes and in his promise' And she dreams that Santa Lucia gives her Water from a chalice, saying 'Drink deep if you want to, daughter - Don't be scared to taste it' and she Really thinks she loves him, and her Head's so full of music that she sings - and what she sings And she cherishes the echo Of his hands upon her body And her heart and breathing quicken, Santa Lucia knows she's ready for his kiss...
