Give Me Your Hand - Original Song
Finally a new original! This was one of those songs that almost wrote itself. I've been struggling through a lot of other material and this one came to me very quickly last week, so I thought I'd share it. Hope you all like it :-)

Lyrics:
that day in the cafe
not your words, but the way
you said them, when i met you
i held myself close
kept you out all alone
it's easy to stick with what you're used to
well the days carried on
and i found myself drawn
to your dark eyes, though i swear they were blue
just give me your hand, so that i'll understand
we're in this together
help pull me through, where i can start to undo
the knots of old love that keep me feeling alone
our eyes share a light
as you hold my gaze tightly
and linger longer than you need to
a smile breaks my lips
and i feel my fingertips
start to tingle as they brush alongside you
and i want to resist
squeeze my hands into fists
for all that i know, you're better off alone too
just give me your hand, so that i'll understand
we're in this together
help pull me through, where i can start to undo
the knots of old love that keep me feeling alone
there's no use in trying
denying
that i want to be with you
and i'll hold my hands out
and i'll shake off my doubts
and hope for you to pull me through
into the red of your lips
and the warmth of your hips
where there's nothing but pieces of you
just give me your hand, so that i'll understand
we're in this together
help pull me through, where i can start to undo
the knots of old love that keep me feeling alone
