|
He sat up on the bed and he watched me packing |
|
He already knew why i was leavin' |
|
I took what i needed but i sure left a lot still hanging |
|
But i figured i'd get it come the weekend |
|
He said daddy when you get there |
|
Are you gonna have a refridgerator |
|
I kinda laughed and said i guess i will |
|
Then he handed me a tracing of his hand |
|
On the back of a piece of paper |
|
And a magnet and my heart stood still (when he said) |
|
Put your hand in mine |
|
And i'll be there anytime |
|
When it feels like you could use a friend |
|
I'll be there to lift you up again |
|
You can reach out to me anytime |
|
And put your hand in mine |
|
I drove past the hardin baptist church |
|
Though it wasn't really on the way to my hotel |
|
Beside me on the seat i was looking at five small fingers |
|
When i heard the chapel bell (and it took me) |
|
Back another life ago when our hearts were open |
|
Oh, back when we could still agree |
|
Back when the future that we had was full of hope and |
|
You and i we got down on our knees (and said) |
|
Put your hand in mine |
|
And i'll be there anytime |
|
When it feels like you could use a friend |
|
I'll be there to lift you up again |
|
You can reach out to me anytime |
|
And put your hand in mine |
|
I couldn't even stay away one night |
|
I noticed you left on the light |
|
And i've only got one thing to say |
|
If you're not too tired and it's not too late |
|
Put your hand in mine |
|
And i'll be here all the time |
|
When it feels like you could use a friend |
|
I'll be here to lift you up again |
|
Would you reach out to me one more time |
|
And put your hand in mine |
|
Would you reach out to me just one more time |
|
And put your hand in mine |
