Touched By The Hand Of God, lyric by New Order

from the songs album Best Of New Order

I was standing by the ocean when i saw your face
I couldn't look at you
I guess you knew it but i never realized
That we were through

And now i'm down here all alone
With every feeling that i own
You can't take that away

And with every breath we take
And the illusions we create
Will come to you someday

And i was touched
By the hand of god
Never knew it
But of course i was

I never hoped to do the things in this world
I wanted to
Because everything i own
It belongs to you

I never looked at you in a sexual way
In my life before
And i've never woken up like this
So desparately before

And i was touched
By the hand of god
Never knew it
But of course i was
