  • Her fingers are in Ávila
    Her jawbone is in Rome
    Saint Teresa
    With your body in different places
    You truly are without a home

    Breathe for me
    Breathe for me
    Breathe for me now

    Oh, I said reach for me
    Reach for me
    Reach for me
    Reach for me now
    So without a home
    You go on, on, on, on your way

    We saw too much violence
    And we saw the decay
    I looked for some guidance
    Yesterday
    Ten times a day

    Dream for me
    Would you dream for me?
    Dream for-, dream for me now

    Oh, would you steal for me?
    Would you steal for me?
    Everything's turned upside down
    Ohh-oh-oh, there's beauty in silence
    There's beauty inside of the pain
    Inside the pain
    So without a home
    You go on, on, on, on your way

    We saw too much violence
    And we lost a decade
    I looked for some guidance
    Yesterday

    Ohh-oh, her beauty's in silence
    And the truths in her face
    I looked for her guidance
    Yesterday
    Ten times a day

    Her fingers are in Ávila
    Her jawbone is in Rome Writer/s: Andy Williams, Jez Williams, Jimi Goodwin
