| You got to walk a little slower when you're with her | |
| Take the time to be tender, that's the plan | |
| You got to stand a little taller while her world falls to pieces | |
| Only then can you hold her in your hand | |
| You got to live for every moment that she gives you | |
| Make the one in a million understand | |
| You got to stand a little taller while her world falls to pieces | |
| Only then can you hold her in your hand | |
| Now too many faces have come down between us | |
| And I was the fool to be | |
| And I can't deny you the wide open spaces | |
| As long as she stop loving me | |
| You got to stand a little closer when you hold her | |
| Make her feel like a woman, understand | |
| You got to stand a little taller while her world falls to pieces | |
| Only then can you hold her in your hand | |

| Only then can you hold, hold her in your hand |
