Appreciate Your Hands

You try, you try, you strive You aim to please Nobody cares, nobody sees I have a taste for talent wasted Oh, waste it on me, waste it on me CHORUS: Bury your shovel by the door Nail your hammer to the floor This job is for a gentle hand You have so much love to give And I am here to welcome it As long as you've got time to spend And I'll be the kind of work That appreciates your hands You're a hero gone to waste Untouched, unused (But) I've never been This beautifully rescued Medals on your chest, no one salutes I am in debt, I don't deserve you, oh-oh CHORUS Bury your shovel by the door Nail your hammer to the floor This job is for a gentle hand You have so much love to give And I am here to welcome it As long as you've got time to spend And I'll be the kind of work I will be the kind of work Oh, I'll be the kind of work That appreciates your hands
