'No-One Can Hurt Me' is a song I wrote originally for an idea of writing a musical about Rasputin and was to be sung by Alexandra, Tsar's wife. It was then transferred to an idea I had to write a musical of 'The Man in the Iron Mask' and would have been sung by Queen Anne. Neither of these musicals came to full fruition but the song is one of my favourites that I've written. This recording, with vocals by the wonderful Cate Mellor, will feature on the upcoming album 'Through The Mirror' which I'm presently recording.
Lyrics
LIGHT THE CANDLES IN A ROUND
NO-ONE LEFT TO HEAR THE SOUND
OF MY TEARDROPS AS THEY FLOW
OF THE HEARTACHE THEY DON’T KNOW
ALL AT ONCE THE HURT CAN FADE
HERE AND NOW I’M NOT AFRAID
I AM BY MYSELF
BUT I DON’T NEED ANYBODY’S HELP
FOR NO-ONE CAN HURT ME WHILE I SIT HERE
HERE IN THE CANDLES I HAVE NO FEAR
THE WORLD OF OUTSIDE IS LOCKED FAR AWAY
FAR FROM THE CIRCLE IN WHICH I LAY
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME WHILE I’M ALONE
HERE IN THE DARKNESS MY FLAME BURNS ON
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME IN HERE
I WILL SEE HIM ONE FINE DAY
HE’LL TAKE MY HAND AND THEN HE’LL SAY
THAT HE’S WITH ME FOR ALL TIME
THAT I’M HIS AND HE IS MINE
FOR NO-ONE CAN HURT ME WHILE I SIT HERE
HERE IN THE CANDLES I HAVE NO FEAR
THE WORLD OF OUTSIDE IS LOCKED FAR AWAY
FAR FROM THE CIRCLE IN WHICH I LAY
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME WHILE I’M ALONE
HERE IN THE DARKNESS MY FLAME BURNS ON
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME IN HERE
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME WHILE I’M ALONE
HERE IN THE CANDLES MY FLAME BURNS ON
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME
NO-ONE CAN HURT ME IN HERE
