In the Palm of Your Hand

Clear waters
Open up for me
In the palm of your hand

White sand shores
That forever will be adored
In the palm of your hand

Mysterious oceans
Open up our emotions
In the palm of your hand

Now run along with me
And forever we will be
Together and unbothered
Next to the sea
And I will be your man
Hold tight to my right hand
