Lyrics
I heard it from my father
I received information from my father
My ears can barely believe
I find it hard to believe what I heard
Said son, 'i just opened the letter
My father said he received a letter and revealed that the recipient has your eyes
And she's got your eyes, can't you see?'
Indicating a connection or relationship with someone mentioned in the letter
But you've got my hands to hold
Expressing a commitment to providing support and comfort
You've got my arms when the world gets too cold
Emphasizing the availability of emotional support in difficult times
Wherever in life you wanna go
Offering assistance and companionship in life's journey
You've got my hands
Reiterating the availability of support through shared experiences
What could mean more than this?
Expressing the significance of the relationship
You gave me a reason to live
Acknowledging that the relationship provided a purpose for living
You are my four leaf clover
Symbolizing the child as a source of luck and happiness
And if heaven could exist
Contemplating the idea of a perfect, heavenly existence
This is it, I'm alive
Expressing a heightened sense of being alive and present
And I'm living for somebody else now
Stating a shift in focus towards living for someone else
And, if I'm away, i want you to know
Expressing a commitment to be present even in absence
I will be there when the storm gets too close
Promising to provide support during challenging times
But you've got my hands to hold
Reiterating the availability of emotional support through physical touch
You've got my arms when the world gets too cold
Offering arms for warmth and comfort in difficult situations
Wherever in life you wanna go
Emphasizing support and guidance in life's journey
You've got my hands
Reiterating the availability of hands for support
Lily, when you wake up
Addressing someone named Lily, expressing care and concern
After all your dreams stop
Referencing the end of dreams, possibly indicating a challenging reality
Close your eyes and save them for the day i'm coming
Instructing to keep hope alive for the day of reunion
home
Expressing the intention to return home
I'll keep you safe forever
Promising eternal safety and protection
You know that i will never let you go
Asserting a commitment to never letting go
But you've got my hands to hold
Reiterating the availability of hands for support
You've got my arms when the world gets too cold
Offering arms for warmth and comfort in difficult situations
Wherever in life you wanna go
Emphasizing support and guidance in life's journey
You've got my hands
Reiterating the availability of hands for support
But you've got my hands to hold
Reiterating the availability of emotional support through physical touch
You've got my arms when the world gets too cold
Offering arms for warmth and comfort in difficult situations
Wherever in life you wanna go
Emphasizing support and guidance in life's journey
You've got my hands
Reiterating the availability of hands for support
You've got my hands to hold
