[Verse 1]
She keeps a little table by the old bazaar
A deck of painted cards beneath a jar
You came to ask what waits beyond the bend
She asked what hurt you brought in as a friend
[Pre-Chorus]
She didn’t claim to know your fate
She made a space and let you speak
[Chorus]
Gypsy woman, read my hands
Then help me understand
You see the ache behind my eyes
And stay until it softens there
No promise carved in stone or sand
Just room to breathe, a steady hand
Gypsy woman, when you listen
I can find myself again
[Verse 2]
She knew the names of all the market dogs
And kept warm tea for travelers in the fog
A silver ring, a scarf of faded blue
She heard the words I couldn’t tell the room
[Pre-Chorus]
No crystal ball could name the way
She helped me make it through today
[Chorus]
Gypsy woman, read my hands
Then help me understand
You see the ache behind my eyes
And stay until it softens there
No promise carved in stone or sand
Just room to breathe, a steady hand
Gypsy woman, when you listen
I can find myself again
[Bridge]
The cards were only where we’d start
The real work happened heart to heart
She said, “Your story’s yours to steer
You don’t have to carry it alone in here”
[Final Chorus]
Gypsy woman, read my hands
Then help me understand
You see the strength beneath my fear
And sit beside me while it clears
No promise carved in stone or sand
Just room to breathe, a steady hand
Gypsy woman, when you listen
I can find myself again
[Outro]
By the old bazaar, the morning starts
She reads the cards, then tends the heart
