Song Lyrics

"My Hand To God"

by Daniel Amos (D?)
Album: Songs Of The Heart

There's a displacement in the air,
Someone else is breathing,
Tonight could be the night...
I think I might be leaving,
There's a slight pressure in my ear,
Something here is moving,
Never seen the moon so big and bright or had a dream this strangely soothing,
It's good you're sleeping baby,
I won't wake you, sweetheart.

My hand to God,
I believe this is true,
Beyond the dark gate I see here now I'll be waiting for you,
All we've dreaded and hoped for is here,
What we both welcome and fear,
I pray you don't despair,
I'll always be near,
My hand to God, my hand to God.

We've both embraced the sobering truth,
It's a world without happy endings,
Now it's as if the film has stopped and real life is just beginning,
You know I love you sweetheart,
See you again soon, baby.

My hand to God,
I believe this is true,
Beyond the dark gate I see here now I'll be waiting for you,
All that we've dreaded and hoped for is here,
What we both welcome and fear,
I pray you don't despair,
I'll always be near,
My hand to God, my hand to God.

Well, it's easier than I thought it would be,
My chest is full and singing with blood,
You're the only reason I hesitate, but it's like swimming against a flood,
Be strong sweetheart,
Won't be long now, baby.

My hand to God,
I believe this is true,
Beyond the dark gate I see here now I'll be waiting for you,
All we've dreaded and hoped for is here,
What we both welcome and fear,
I pray you don't despair,
I'll always be near,
My hand to God.
