william caesar - hands lyrics

[verse 1]
i once held a hand that withered away over time
i saw a reflection of an escape route when i looked in your eyes
but i held faith & i held on for dear life
and i held onto those ashes very tight

the hands of time told me that my time will be up soon
reflections of your life will play back when you look at the moon
and you’ll see what could’ve been & see everything of the truth
that there’s no use for you, your hands are too bruised

[chorus]
let me hold onto you
i won’t be around much longer
you helped me see my truth
but hands drift away when we’re not fonder

let me be your hand
when you don’t have a plan
let me be your man
but i know that i can’t

[verse 2]
fingers dressed with metal wear suits of armor to show one’s love
and the nails play pretend in the dollhouse of life in the sun
the knuckles were once mine, laid in the grooves of your skin
i admired the artwork, but now look from afar in my death
i dried out in the sun where the tears turned to sand on my face
but no one to call those tears their home, we stay in our place
time is but a privilege & these hands have lost that race
die here in the bushes where i tried to find an embrace

[chorus]
let me hold onto you
i won’t be around much longer
you helped me see my truth
but hands drift away when we’re not fonder

let me be your hand
when you don’t have a plan
let me be your man
but i know that i can’t
