"Hush, Hush, Hush" Lyrics

Long white arms
Losing their strength and form
Sixty-year man on twenty year old skin

Skeleton, your eyes have lost their warmth
Look to your father for some support

Hush, hush, hush
Says your daddy's touch
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Says the hundredth sheep
Peace, peace, peace
May you go in peace

Cruel old joke
Waited so long to show
The one that you wanted wasn't a girl

All your life
You kept it hidden inside
Now when you step you stumble, you die

(Refrain)

Man:
Oh, maybe next time
You'll be Henry VIII
Wake up tomorrow and dawn to the great

Open your eyes
And a new life will begin
Oh, maybe next you'll begin with a chance

Hush, hush, hush

Paula Cole:
Hush, hush, hush
Hush, hush, hush
Oh, hush, hush, hush
Oh, hush
