Daphne Rubin-Vega Lyrics
"Tommy"

Seven sisters cross the sky,
swirl of beauty, mystifies,
breathing in the galaxies.

simple devotion: the sunset, the ocean,
freak of nature,
force of life.

Tommy,
lay it on me,
right here, where the sea and the sky collide,
Tommy,
allow me,
to be near you.

You were born under the sea;
going liquid just like me,
left to swim in your reflection.

simple devotion:
the sunset the ocean,
sweet surrender,
want to be your wife.

Tommy,
lay it on me,
right here, where the sea and the sky ocllide,
Tommy,
allow me,
to be near...

Tommy, lay it on me,
right here.

You're all the hint I need
that there's a God in heaven.

Rip tides pull the world around;
on the silent solid ground,
you were all the hint I need.

Lay it on right here,
Lay it lay it lay it on right here,
Lay it on right here,
Tommy Tommy lay it on right here.

Tommy, allow me to be near...
Tommy, lay it on me, right here,
where the yin and the yang collide,
Tommy, allow me to be near, you.
