Lyrics

I HELD HIS HAND

STANDIN? BY HIM NEAR THAT BUSY STREET
VERSE 1 ON A COLD NOVEMBER DAY
WITH EVERY PASSING CAR THAT CAME FLYING BY
I NEVER LET HIS HAND GET TOO FAR AWAY.

I SQUEEZED IT TIGHTER WHEN I WAS AFRAID
VERSE 2 BUT, DADDY DIDN?T SEEM TO MIND.
AND, WHEN IT CAME TIME FOR US TO CROSS THAT ROAD
I STOOD RIGHT THERE BY HIS SIDE (AND)

I HELD HIS HAND WITH ALL THE STRENGTH I OWN
CHORUS HOLDIN? ON FOR DEAR LIFE, AFRAID TO LET HIM GO.
EACH LITTLE TOUCH HELPED ME UNDERSTAND
THAT HE?D ALWAYS BE RIGHT THERE
WHEN I HELD HIS HAND.

A FEW YEARS LATER BENEATH THOSE WEDDING BELLS
VERSE 3 AS I STOOD THERE NERVOUSLY
MY HANDS WERE SHAKIN?, I COULDN?T CALM ?EM DOWN
BUT, THEN DADDY REACHED FOR ME (AND)

REPEAT CHORUS

AND, I STILL REMEMBER THAT COLD NIGHT
BRIDGE WHEN I WATCHED HIM SLIP AWAY... (AND)

REPEAT CHORUS

HE?D ALWAYS BE RIGHT THERE
TAG WHEN I HELD HIS HAND...
I NEVER LET HIS HAND GET TOO FAR AWAY.
