My hands are tied
And I can't walk
I couldn't find the words
Even if I could talk
My mouth is dry
And my mind won't stop
Thinkin bout the what if's
Could've been's and maybe not's
You see I promised you
Once upon a time
I'd give you everything
If only you'd be mine
Now I find myself
Starin' at these hands
Simple useless tools
Of an honest man
An honest man
My eyes are dim
And I hang my head
See I've worked so hard to live
That all my dreams are dead
But then there's you
My shining light
The very soul provider of
My will to fight
You see I promised you
Once upon a time
I'd give you everything
If only you'd be mine
Now I find myself
Starin' at these hands
Simple useless tools
Of an honest man
An honest man
See I promised you
Once upon a time
I'd give you everything
If only you'd be mine
Now I find myself
Starin' at these hands
Simple useless tools
Of this honest man
An honest man
Mmmmmm
