Frances Luke Accord - Urban Woman Lyrics

Before me
I mean right in front of me
Ruby bounty
On the vine, on the vine
The one and the only
Growing cherry
Child of mine, of mine

Friction
Is my only addiction
And my rehabilitation won’t put me right
So I take flight
To urban woman, fame and money
Queen on high, on high

Tremble
My double in the window
Dancing on the table
I was in a trance, in a trance
And falling in love with
The ring around your future
A whisper at your shoulder

Bloom
Fate’s got a hold of you.

Street light
Substance
Valence
Patience
And insight
Tongue-tied
Broken
Bone-dry

Sunken
Down in your cave of wonders
Like a buried treasure
Queen in vein, queen in vein
Urban woman, what I wanna know here
Is can you dance?
Freedom
Hammer falling from rolling thunder
Oh I can’t hide, can’t hide
And singing like soldiers
To the beat of the bedlam
Oh, I’m alive

In bloom
Fate’s got a hold of you
Strife
A life for a life

Before me
I mean right in front of me
The crowning hour
Queen in time, queen in time
The one and the only
Future hanging
Child of mine
