Hand In Hand
Splintered whispers of
Yet another broken love
Daydreaming out on the trail
But storms blow in, and hearts they fail
Hey there bright girl, don’t waste your time
Doing what I do with mine
You’ve got to keep us from this twist of fate
You know and I both know could be a big mistake
(C, instrumental break)
Some want to fly like Icarus
Does that mean birds dream of living in the dust?
And if the sun melts through our wings of wax
will the view up there be worth our broken backs?
Another day, another dollar, others say
And a penny earned is a penny saved
But what the hell are they all saving for
If their stacks of pennies won’t open heaven’s door
(C)
My point I guess, if I have to choose
Is that you have to fall in love before you sing the blues
Night will turn to day and day to black
Some things you can’t put down and others you’ll never ever get back
Life is just a funny dream and before I wake
I’ve got one request I’d like to make
I was hoping we could walk a while just me and you
Hand in hand, together, I know we can make it through
(C)
