Imagine Your Hands In Mine

Every time I see you smile

I just want to hold you for awhile

And fall into your warm gaze

Of beautiful blue eyes that throw me into a daze.

 

And in this world I just can't stand 

I'll stay if only to hold your hand

Facing tomorrow with an open heart,

And putting you back together when you fall apart.

 

Although our insecurities may vary

We all have emotional bags that we carry,

I don't care about the past

Or the valleys I must cross, however vast.

 

You’re the only girl in my dreams,

You keep me from tearing from the seams

So please just let me imagine your hands in mine,

Just a little longer would be fine.
