Palm of Your Hand ft. Poe Mack Lyrics

He said, "You're over-thinking it"

She began to think it over

He didn't have time for it

When she needed a shoulder

As he reached out to hold

Her turn away

Turned light to grey

It wasn't right

Apparently

Their differences

Were day and night

Night to day

Overnight business trips

Alone he lay

In hotels

He knows so well

To make the pay

Cause she once said

I real man brings home the bread

He remembers

when the fights were about money

Now in his head

He's doing everything

To be treated like a king

First class flights

Nights in Byzantine castles

But those moments

are few and far between

He gave her everything

Now all she says wants is one thing

Time and attention

A break from the daily routine

Some new dishes

A remodeled kitchen

A brand new house

More love and understanding

A ten day vacation

A cruise around the Atlantic

Yeah. Just one thing. Right?...

So the partners change around

But the happiness just don't seem to get found

Is there no love when it's right in the palm of their hand

Right.

Just one thing

A new wardrobe

Trips to the gym

Together

A better job

In a better city

With better weather

Protection

Affection

And compliments

But all the complaints

were messing with his confidence

It's common sense

He was way too involved

With work

That somehow at home

Problems weren't getting solved

Every thought of moments lost

Was pressure heaped on his brain

No pleasure

The things he used to love

Became a pain

A strain

A stress

For better or worse

And none the less

He felt like they were so blessed

He remembered being poor

And struggling

Just to make it

Get a little something

Somebody break in and take it

He couldn't understand

The origin of resistance

And why she couldn't

Share in his contentment

For quiet time

He went home the long way

Now his chest hurt

His arm and his head began to ache

Hook (Sample):

So the partners change around

But the happiness just don't seem to get found

Is there no love when it's right in the palm of their hand
