Your Hand

Austin Idol

Lyrics

[Verse]
I don’t know where I’m going,
I don’t know where I’ve been.
This guitar around my shoulder
Has been my only friend.
I’ve smothered all I’ve touched,
Turned love to ash again.
The ones I tried to hold the most
I somehow just offend
[Verse 2]
I’ve weathered every silence,
Destroyed each vow I spoke.
Built castles out of memory
That time and guilt revoke.
I don’t deserve forgiveness,
I barely understand...
But you reached out through all of it
And let me hold your hand.
[Chorus]
Why would you choose me?
Why would you care?
Why give this broken thing a place,
A soul too worn to bear?
But if your love still lingers
for this shattered man..
Then let me rise and walk again,
Just to hold your hand.
[Bridge ]
lost all hope,
The sky's are dark,
But still I hear your name.
A whisper rides upon the wind
That says I’m not the same.
[Chorus]
So why would you want me?
I’ll never understand...
But I’ll save this wretched soul you want
Just so I can...
Hold Your hand.
