Will You Hold My Hand-Inspired By a Title Written By Denise Narayadu

She only wanted a kind soul to hold her hand
Remembering what life is, but forgetting why
Just wanting a guide in a now strange land

A solitary desert footprints lost in the sand
The journey impossible but still she'll try
She only wants a kind soul to hold her hand

She feels lost in this vast and lonely land 
So much despair still her eyes remain dry
Just wanting a guide in a now strange land

Confused asking what will happiness demand
She continues steadfast and she will not cry
She only wanted a kind soul to hold her hand 

Looking for the strength to make her stand 
Always some truths that she cannot deny 
Just wanting a guide in a now strange land

Time reveals two paths one bland one grand
A single star luminates in a pitch black sky
She only wanted a kind soul to hold her hand
Just wanting a guide in a now strange land
