Hand in Hand
P.Kater & D.Miller Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

With pen in hand
You sign your name
Today at five
I'll be on that train
And you'll be free
And I'll be alone
So alone
If you think
We can't find the love we once knew
If you think
I can't make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone
And you'll be on your own
You'll be on your own

Can you take good care of Jenny
Can you take her to school everyday
Can you teach her how to play
All the games that little girls play
Hear what I say
Can you teach her how to roll up her hair
Can you make sure each night that she says her prayers
Well if you can do all these things
Then maybe she won't miss me
Maybe she won't miss me

And tonight as you laid in that big lonely bed
And you look at that pillow
Where I laid my head
With your heart on fire
Will you have no desire
To kiss me
Or to hold me

And if you can forget
The good times we had
If you don't think
They out weigh the bad
Well then go ahead
Sign your name
And I'll be




On my way
I'll be on my way

I like the smooth voice behind the music at 1:12 like angels whispering :)

Lo cierto es que Dominic y Kater hacen que la musica nos transporte y toque como un rayo en medio de la obscuridad, llenando todo de una luz calida y de esperanza
