From the recording Healing Hand
Lyrics
Healing Hand m.blatte/j.cerisano
I was born a white man in the hills of West Virginia
dreamed I was a black man in Selma, Alabama
It was 1961 and in the early morning sun
He was marching for freedom
Repair what been broken, bring back what's been taken
the dream has been shattered, the promise forsaken
The waters are risin' all over this land
Everybody's seachin’ for a healing hand
She was born a rich girl in the oil fields of Texas
In a dream she met the president from Boston Mass.
It was 1961 and that man he looked so young
talkin’ bout freedom
(Everybody’s searchin’ for a healing hand)
Healing hand
(Everybody’s searchin’ for a healing hand)
Healing hand
Everybody's seachin’, everybody's seachin’
Everybody's searchin’ for a healing hand
She was born a rich girl in the oil fields of Texas
In a dream she met the president
From Boston Massachusetts
It was 1961 band and that man he looked so young
Talking bout freedom
Repair what been broken, bring back what's been taken
the dream have been shattered, the promise forsaken
The waters are risin' all over this land
Everybody's seachin’ for a healing hand
(Everybody’s searchin’ for a healing hand (Healing hand
(Everybody’s searchin’ for a healing hand)
Healing hand
Everybody's seachin’, everybody's seachin’
Everybody's searchin’ for a healing hand
Like the leaves on the trees
on an Autumn day
all of the healers are blown away……………..
Repair what been broken
Bring back what's been taken
The dreams have been shattered. the promise forsake etc….
