Lyrics The Big Hand (1990 Demo) - 2022 Remaster - The Cure

The big hand makes all of your favourite things
Like all your dreams go small
And all your friends run away
Until your memories fail
And the words won't fit
The way the big hand smiles
You just won't care about it

The big hand makes all of your favourite things
Like all your rings look small
And all your fingers will go
Like all the slugs on the walls
And all the flowers in the sun
Like throws a shadow on the floor
And all the things that you've done

And when the big hand speaks
It's like fireworks and heaven
So you listen then sulk
And whisper as small as you can
And when the big hand sings
It's like fireworks and friends
Leaving alone you think I'm
Leaving alone
Leaving alone you think I'm
Leaving alone

So when the big hand holds up
It makes sure everything's good
And with a voice like glass
Looking outwards
Walks out
And I bleed
You think I'm quite small now
Hiding away

And when the big hand speaks
It's like fireworks and heaven
So you listen then sulk
And whisper as small as you can
And when the big hand sings
It's like fireworks and friends
Leaving alone you think I'm
Leaving alone
Leaving alone you think I'm
Leaving alone
