Your Own Hands

I could hold you 'til you stand tall 'Til you stand alone so you never fall Be the compass when you get lost When you face a wall, help you get across I could be there in a hurry I could be your eyes so you'd always see Only beauty in the world Only beauty in the world I could warn you 'bout the daylight 'Bout the dangerous middle of the night You could follow plans I started Be another me, have all I never had I was lying all alone, lying all alone Thinking one day you'll go make another home Anywhere in the world Anywhere in the world I will find the wood and cut the rocks So you can mill it with your own hands I will draw the water, get the grain So you might cultivate your own land I will stay awake all night so you can rest and have your own dreams I'ma sing this song my whole life long, I'll sing Through the darkness of the silence I want to be the light, show you how to dance In the oceans, you might dive in I could be the air, I'll show you how to breathe I was lying all alone, lying all alone Thinking one day you'll go write another song Anywhere in the world Anywhere in the world I will find the wood and cut the rocks So you can mill it with your own hands I will draw the water, get the grain So you might cultivate your own land I will stay awake all night so you can rest and have your own dreams I'ma sing this song my whole life long, I'll sing I will find the wood and cut the rocks So you can mill it with your own hands I will draw the water, get the grain So you might cultivate your own land I will stay awake all night so you can rest and have your own dreams I'ma sing this song my whole life long I'll sing 'til the break of dawn I'ma sing this song my whole life long, I'll sing songs Sing 'til the day is done Sing until the break of dawn Sing, oh-oh Sing, oh-oh
