Feel

When people ask me how I feel
I tell them with my hands
My heart is not for you to steal
Unless we’re holding hands

If I ask you how you feel
I really want to know
And if your hands are how you feel
Then I want you to show

With feelings come emotion
Some are very sad
But with you and our commotion
I am really very glad

I’ve been touched by what I felt
Also felt by what I’ve touched
While before you I have knelt
Your hand I will have clutched

Will you hold me closely
If I would hold you back
I want to hold you mostly
So we can take up all the slack

With my feelings I comply
But I feel its time to go now
So I shall say goodbye
In other words ciao
