There's a tear in the sky
Where the blue used to be
There's a mystery guest
Instead of me
Oh, you slip back downward
Lose your grip
Fall close to the fire
Jump back so quick

Night falls on a dead street
I think you're better off alive
Just a handful of love, girl

Is the turn of the tide
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
Is the turn of the tide
(Nothing to lose, nothing to hide)
Got to break out from inside
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)

Get to the heart of the matter
No, don't go around
Don't keep it confidential
Say it out loud
Rigid isolation
Will cuff your wrist
Gonna hold you in possession
Make you shake and twist

There's a hairline fracture
In the world outside
Just a handful of love, girl

Is the turn of the tide
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
Is the turn of the tide
(Nothing to lose, nothing to hide)
Got to break out from inside
(Change is breaking out from inside)
Is the turn of the tide
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)

You can keep pretending
You can let it ride
Just a handful of love, girl

Is the turn of the tide
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
Is the turn of the tide
(Nothing to lose, nothing to hide)
Got to break out from inside
(Change is breaking out from inside)
Is the turn of the tide
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)

(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
Is the turn of the tide
(Nothing to lose, nothing to hide)
Got to break out from inside
(Change is breaking out from inside)
Is the turn of the tide
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)

(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
(Handful of love is the turn of the tide)
