You see by the lines on my hands I' ve been carrying a heavy load You follow them across my palms Where they run like roads Won' t you come and read the future, turn it on Won' t you tell me how I will not feel so lonely And read the patterns on my skin Let the fire somehow get in See my heart line is intact So this is what I lacked Won' t you come and read the future, turn it on Won' t you tell me how I will not feel so lonely Under the weight of this balmy night Tell me something so divine If there' s a future in these lines Bring it into the light Won' t you come and read the future, turn it on Won' t you tell me how I will not feel so lonely
