Story Behind The Song
Started by me playing the series of chords and trying not to change the melody not until I had to (depending on the subsequent chord). Lyrics came from I know not where. They seemed to match the chords and melody and they found a home there.

Lyrics
IN MY HAND ? Words & Music by Jeffrey Hatcher 1984
When you?re here and when you?re gone
They?re the same now I understand
It?s what I don?t have
That?s what I want
When it?s here in my hand
Calling out around the world
When I knew I?d find it here
Why do they that have seem to always want?
When it?s there in their hand?
Don?t know how this came to be
You could always see so much better than me
Calling out around the world
When it?s here in my hand
Now the nights are long
And my memories, too
Stretching back like the desert sand
And it?s me who has; it?s me who wants
When it?s here in my hand
When it?s here in my hand
It was here
