Lyrics of Jimi's "her hand is like a frightened pigeon"

Her hand lay in mine like a frightened pigeon

It's as if she never knew she didn't have to fly all the time

Sometimes it's just a simple landing in another good hand

Her hand is like an ignorant dog lying in my hand

It's as if she never understood that she didn't have to struggle all the time

Sometimes it can be lying in another pair of soft hands

She said she was tired. She said she wanted to get out of the car

But the earth is still spinning

She said she always got off the wrong station. She said she always took the wrong bus

She said, earth, earth, when do you stop spinning

Her hand lay in mine like a frightened pigeon

It's as if she never knew she didn't have to fly all the time

Sometimes it's just a simple landing in another good hand

She said she was tired. She said she wanted to get out of the car

But the earth is still spinning

She said she always got off the wrong station. She said she always took the wrong bus

She said, earth, earth, when do you stop spinning

I want to get off
