Put Your Hand In Mine

He sat up on the bed and he watched me packing
 He already knew why I was leavin'
 I took what I needed but I sure left a lot still hanging
 But I figured I'd get it come the weekend
 He said Daddy when you get there
 Are you gonna have a refridgerator
 I kinda laughed and said I guess I will
 Then he handed me a tracing of his hand
 On the back of a piece of paper
 And a magnet and my heart stood still (when he said)
 Put your hand in mine
 And I'll be there anytime
 When it feels like you could use a friend
 I'll be there to lift you up again
 You can reach out to me anytime
 And put your hand in mine
 I drove past the Hardin Baptist Church
 Though it wasn't really on the way to my hotel
 Beside me on the seat I was looking at five small fingers
 When I heard the chapel bell (and it took me)
 Back another life ago when our hearts were open
 Oh, back when we could still agree
 Back when the future that we had was full of hope and
 You and I we got down on our knees (and said)
 Put your hand in mine
 And I'll be there anytime
 When it feels like you could use a friend
 I'll be there to lift you up again
 You can reach out to me anytime
 And put your hand in mine
 I couldn't even stay away one night
 I noticed you left on the light
 And I've only got one thing to say
 If you're not too tired and it's not too late
 Put your hand in mine
 And I'll be here all the time
 When it feels like you could use a friend
 I'll be here to lift you up again
 Would you reach out to me one more time
 And put your hand in mine
 Would you reach out to me just one more time
 And put your hand in mine
