In Our Hands Lyrics
Not a smoke in the pack
And the sky’s turning black
And i’m tryin’ to wash down this aching
So i drag off to bed
With a prayer in my head
For one night to pass without shaking
Where is the road that you said we’d come to
And where is the child my mother would hum to
And when will the future stop showing the past
I think i’ll just turn out the light
Took a vow to be true
And now look at you
Chasing small girls with big shoes and punctured skin
Staring blank with fatigue
’cause you’re out of your league
Are you sure it’s your heart that you’re following
How far is heaven and how long to get there
And when did this pain cut so deep
Will you brush back my hair so i know that you’re there
And hold me ’til i fall asleep

And how many years can we blow out the candles
And still not understand
That love, like an old piece of cloth from the attic
Just came apart in our hands
Kenny white…piano, string arrangement
Shawn colvin…duet vocal
