These Hands - Joshua Radin

If we unfold 'em reach out 'em out slowly
Fall and they'll hold me intertwined
And if we don't let go stay in the echo
That hangs in the hallway all our lives
They'll make you dinner at the end of the day
They'll work to the bone so the bills are paid
They're calloused by the strings I play but you don't mind
My head sometimes lost in a daydream
My heart can often go unseen
My eyes used to look past your shoulder
But as they've gotten older
You can always count on these hands
They can tread water when life gets harder
They can reach across the great divide
They come together when I need to pray
Before we try to sleep in the bed we made
And as the plans we had have begun to fade
It's still the same
It's my head sometimes lost in a daydream
My heart can often go unseen
My eyes used to look past your shoulder
But as they've gotten older
You can always count on these hands
Though they've been wrong they can still feel stronger than
My head sometimes lost in a daydream
My heart can often go unseen
My eyes used to look past your shoulder
But as they've gotten older
You can always count on these hands
These hands
