Hand Out Giving

Await the long light in a full-stop town

Where I prayed for blue sky, then stared at the ground

I tried standing up, tried turning around

I'm stuck inside with the curtains down

I still believe it, baby, what can I say?

I wanna keep my love in a hidden place

I, I want to leave, but I won't without you

I said I'd keep trying, I was telling the truth

Put your hand out giving's gonna get you closer

Won't you tell me what to do?

Lay your head down, take a little rest on my shoulder

We can start over new

I know who to call if I should stumble and fall

Commit a criminal act or two

With my hand out giving it my best to get closer

And I'm closer to you

Lost in my mind singing way too loud

And spitting on each face in the crowd

I tried standing up, I started following down

I'm shook inside and the band's in town

I still believe it, baby, what can I say?

They took my love and made a big mistake

They don't see it, baby, not like you do

I said I'd keep trying, I was telling the truth

Put your hand out giving's gonna get you closer

Won't you tell me what to do?

Lay your head down, take a little rest on my shoulder

We can start over new

I know who to call if I should stumble and fall

Commit a criminal act or two

With my hand out giving it my best to get closer

And I'm closer to you
