Story Behind The Song
Not being able to give you're heart to someone, and only wanting a hand to hold.
Song Description
You aren't wired the way everybody ese is. When you see people in love, you want it for yourself more than anything. But when it actually comes your way, you shy away from it, because love has been the biggest source of pain throughout your life. How can loving be a good thing if this is the case? Isn't it easier to ask for someone's hand and nothing else. You don't want love, for fear of what that might bring you, so you live in quiet solitude, defeated.

Lyrics
I don't wanna get your hopes up,
I just wanna bring my fears down,
To the ground, To the ground,
Buried down,
I'm not lonely I'm just alone,
Even so I can't sleep at home,
Will you hold me, or will you wanna leave,
When I say,
I just want a hand,
I just want a hand,
Not a heart,
I just want a hand,
I just want a hand,
Not a heart,
Everything I do is done with love,
But it's not the kind that you're looking for,
I know that you want more, I know that you want more,
But I don't.
Do you know man how hard this hurts,
To know that I can't love like you deserve,
I know that you want more,
I know that you want more,
But I don't
I just want a hand,
I just want a hand,
not a heart,
I just want a hand,
I just want a hand,
not a heart
I just want a hand,
I just want a hand,
Not a heart,
i just want a hand,
I just want a hand,
Not a heart
