Hero of My Heart and Hands

The gentle touch of your hand Was something I never planned A feeling I have never known Because I was always shown The hardened slaps all over me Thinking that my destiny Was to be abused and quiver Every slap just made me quiver My body was black and blue There was nothing left to do But give in and let him beat All the love right out of me So there was none left to give No happiness left to live No way I could make it through Till you came to my rescue Softly reaching for my hand Trying to make me understand Touches can be passionate Slowly my fingers would fit Carefully into your touch And caress I love so much Your my hero every day Helping my past go away With patience you showed me love Hand fitting just like a glove Your grasp I will always hold I no longer feel cold From a touch so warm and caring Hand in hand I will be sharing Kisses on comforting lips As you stroke my fingertips
