Kiss Of Life - Lyrics by Peter Gabriel


Lyrics
See me a big woman, big woman look how you dance

See me a big woman, big woman caught in a trance

Dancing on the tabletop, covered up with the Easter feast

You're dancing for the fishermen, from the very large right
to the least

Dancing for the slow release, first the boy and then the beast

Then the beast

Burning, buring with the kiss of life

Burning, buring with the kiss of life


See me, a big woman, big woman so full of life

See me, a big woman, big woman going to be my wife

Watching for the different eyes - they change your face -
they come inside

Watch the spirits laugh and cry, watch them find a place
to hide

Watch the spirits talk in tongues, watch them take you for
a ride

Down at the ocean lies a body in the sand

Big woman sits beside, head in hand

With heat from her skin, and fire from her breath

She blows hard, she slows deep in the mouth of death

Burning, burning with the kiss of life

Burning, burning with the kiss of life

Burning, burning with the kiss of life
