Lyrics

I think about the life I've lived
A figure made of clay
I think of all the things I've lost
The things I gave away
And when I'm in a certain mood
I search the halls and look
One night I found these magic words
Within a magic book
You can throw it away
Throw it away
Live your life, give your love
Each and every day
And keep your hand wide open
Let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
There's a hand to rock the cradle
And a hand to help us stand
With a gentle kind of motion
As it moves across the land
And the hand's outstretched and open
Gifts of life and love it brings
So keep your hand wide open
If you're needing anything
You can throw it away
Throw it away
Live your life, give your love
Each and every day
Keep your hand wide open
Let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
There's a natural obligation
To what we own and claim
Possessing and belonging to
Acknowledging a name
So keep your hand wide open
If you're needing love today
'Cause you can't lose it even if
You throw it all away
You can throw it away
You can throw it away
Live your life, give your love
Each and every day
And keep your hand wide open
Let the sun shine through
'Cause you can never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
You can never, never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
You can never, never lose a thing
If it belongs to you
