Seashells

There was the solitude of prayer in her sad look
As if her eyes were the doors to her tears
A sign of the cross lingers, fingers against the evil eye
And the shells that the old woman threw on an old cloak
 
Be watchful there is a great love but keep it secret
You empty your heart at the hint of fear
See how the shells fell facing north
Cause I am going to stir up destiny, and change your luck
 
There was an intense desperation in her voice
The room reeked of incense, and a few more powders
The old woman shook her scarf, folded it, tied two knots
And the saintly father spoke using her voice.
 
Be watchful there is a great love but keep it secret
You empty your heart at the hint of fear
See how the shells fell facing north
Cause I am going to stir up destiny, and change your luck
 
Be watchful there is a great love but keep it secret
You empty your heart at the hint of fear
See how the shells fell facing north
Cause I am going to stir up destiny, and change your luck
