1997 - January 19th

i heard it from my father
my ears can barely believe
said son, 'i just opened the letter
and she's got your eyes, can't you see?'

but you've got my hands to hold
you've got my arms when the world gets too cold
wherever in life you wanna go
you've got my hands

what could mean more than this?
you gave me a reason to live
you are my four leaf clover
and if heaven could exist

this is it, i'm alive
and i'm living for somebody else now
and, if i'm away, i want you to know
i will be there when the storm gets too close

but you've got my hands to hold
you've got my arms when the world gets too cold
wherever in life you wanna go
you've got my hands

Lily, when you wake up
after all your dreams stop
close your eyes and save them for the day i'm coming home
i'll keep you safe forever
you know that i will never let you go

but you've got my hands to hold
you've got my arms when the world gets too cold
wherever in life you wanna go
you've got my hands

but you've got my hands to hold
you've got my arms when the world gets too cold
wherever in life you wanna go
you've got my hands

you've got my hands to hold x4
