I'll Hold Out My Hand

Just like a child

Gotta set your heart to believe in

But you don't even try

To let yourself believe what you're feeling

So, I'll hold out my hand

And I'll be your friend

You don't have to be mine

And I'll try, and I'll try

And try it again

To get you to open your eyes

So little we see

To show us where we should be goin'

And with what we can feel

Is the only thing really worth knowin'

So, I'll hold out my hand

And I'll be your friend

You don't have to be mine

And I'll try, and I'll try

And try it again

To get you to open your eyes

Won't you breathe the sunshine

If you only let it be?

Well, just turn aroundn, see yourself

Know you're just like me

We gotta leave it all behind us

We gotta live a different ways

We cannot wait until tomorrow

I gotta get it done today

So, I'll hold out my hand

I'll be your friend

You don't have to be mine

And I'll try, and I'll try

And try it again

Get you to open your eyes

So, I'll hold out my hand

I'll be your friend

You don't have to be mine

And I'll try, try, try, try

Try it again

To get you to open your eyes

So, I'll hold out my hand

I'll be your friend

You don't have to be mine
