The Hands You're Holding Now

Tllhe Hanbs You're Holding Now - Marty Robbins (馬丁·羅賓遜)

The hands you're holding now if you remember

Are the very hands that gave you your first rose

They're reaching out for one last dying ember

In the ashes of a love that lost its glow

If you don't want me I won't try to keep you

But there's just the smallest chance you may be wrong

Until you're sure I hope you'll never let go

Of the hands that you've been holding for so long

Did God mean I could keep you for a lifetime

Or did he mean for just a year or two

And if it's meant that I should have to lose you

Then what's these hands you're holding gonna do

I can't forgive the first time that I kissed you

It's the sweetest feeling I had ever known

But every dream they say must have an ending

And you leave the hands you're holding all alone

If you don't want me I won't try to keep you

But there's just the smallest chance you may be wrong

Until you're sure I hope you'll never let go

Of the hands that you've been holding for so long
