Lyrics
HANDS
copyright © John A Read 2000
Hands that loved,
Hands that thrilled.
Hands that held so tight.
Hands that touched so softly,
Are hands that hate and fight.
Here?s the hand that once caressed,
Here?s the hand that held you.
Here?s the hand that wiped the tears,
Here?s the hand you bit.
Holding out my hands for you,
Like holding out my heart,
Pulling us together once,
Now pushing us apart.
Hands that prayed,
Hands that soothed,
Hands that never lie.
Hands that begged for comfort,
Are hands that wave goodbye.
Honest hands up in the air,
Nothing to reveal.
Yours were kept behind your back,
With plenty to conceal.
Here?s the hand that cared for you,
Here?s the hand that gave.
Here?s the hand that brought you joy,
Here?s the hand you spurned.
