Holding Hands With Eva
So walking we went, just a walk
Oh, a touch, shiver, tingle, warmth
A soft hand slides into mine
We look and smile, need no words
A new step in this found love
More little trusts, acceptance
I gently press, feel a response
My heart skips, sings, warms me
I know what I feel, deepening love
I smile, feel it, strange sense, new
But so welcome, so safe
So we sit, drink coffee, talk, smile
Glances come to us as we laugh
I wonder what they think
We walk back, fingers brushing
Then a soft hand slides into mine
We look and smile
Who needs words
