Hold My Hand ft. Cleo Black Lyrics

Thank you

Thank you

For your service

He was one of many faces

Cramped inside those spaces

But he was something different

His laugh was so contagious

A chance to joke he never wasted

And kept us all in stitches

And every day he talked about his misses

His grandkids, he was optimistic

That he would make it home

Said it wouldn't be too long

But the days got longer

And the nights grew colder

Smiles and laughter

Became a cold shoulder

One day I noticed

His eyes were gazing through me

When I leaned in closer

He reached out and said to me

He said

Can you hold my hand

When the sun goes down

Hold my hand

When there's no more sound

Hold my hand

When I close my eyes

Then you can let 'em know

I was not alone

You were by my side

Hold your hand

She would wake up at the crack of dawn

Just to see the rising sun

Staring out the window

And it would make me stop and hold my heart a while

Every time I'd see her smile

With those braces and dimples

And she would tell me about her puppy

Her little brother

And of course, her worried mother

Cause she was here alone

And dreaming of home

She asked if her good behavior

And her daily prayers

Would make God come save her

And I didn't know what to say to her

One day I heard my name

From a little voice that sounded so weak

When I turned around

She reached out and she started to speak

She said

Can you hold my hand

When the sun goes down

Hold my hand

When there's no more sound

Hold my hand

When I close my eyes

And let my mama know

I was not alone

You were by my side

Can you hold my hand

When the sun goes down

Hold my hand

When there's no more sound

Hold my hand

When I close my eyes

And you can let 'em know

I was not alone

You were by my side

I will hold your hand

When the sun goes down

I will hold your hand

When there's no more sound

I will hold your hand

When you close your eyes

And I will let them know

You were not alone

I was by your side
