Lyrics
The Reader of Palms

V1
A curtain of beads
Cascades from her ceiling
In rainbowy colours
That shimmer and swish

V2
She closes her eyes
Invoking my future
But making no promise 
To grant any wish

Chorus
The reader of palms
Has my fate in her hands
The reader of palms
Knows the secrets I hide
She can trace all the reasons I lied

Bridge
I crept from the shadows to visit her here
I’m in need of a gypsy, a prophet, a seer
How can I salvage a soul that’s gone dark?
Heal all the faultlines that fracture my heart?

Chorus
The reader of palms
Has my fate in her hands
The reader of palms
Knows the secrets I hide
She can trace all the reasons I lied

Chorus
The reader of palms
Has my fate in her hands
The reader of palms
Knows the secrets I hide
She can trace all the reasons I lied

A really cool song with a very unique feel.  A bit of Jethro Tull I felt inside the thing, but still unique.  Great work.

Love the little celtic touch to it. Great song even with slightly unsynced drums.

Beautiful touching song. As usual I really like your singing.  Reminds me of back in my college days there was five of us sitting at table and this Lybian foreign student came to talk to us.  Without knowing any of us he read our palms and he was able to nail all our personality types.  It was impressive.
