Gloria / Van Morrison’s Gloria Songtext / Lyric

You know he got the cure

You know he went astray

He used to stay awake

To drive the dreams he had away

He wanted to believe

In the hands of love



His head it felt heavy

As he cut across the land

A dog started crying

Like a broken hearted man

At the howling wind

At the howling wind






He went deeper into black

Deeper into white

Could see the stars shining

Like nails in the night

He felt the healing

Healing, healing

Healing hands of love

Like the stars shiny shiny

From above



Hand in the pocket

Finger on the steel

The pistol weighed heavy

His heart he could feel

Was beating, beating

Beating, beating oh my love

Oh my love, oh my love

Oh my love



My love



Saw the hands that build

Can also pull down



The hands of love
