Take my hand


take my hand and set me free,

from this dream of you and me.

Promise me one simple thing,

but where to start, where to begin?

 

maybe a hello, 

or maybe goodbye

maybe some simple question,

                just,   why?

 

take my hand and set me free,

from this dream of you and me.

Release my heart and let it fly,

till I reach the newborn sky.

 

take my hand and set me free,

to live how I ot to be.

 

free of pain and free of doubt,

to go without-

you wouldn't be fair,

just like that old lady on a crystal stair.

 

take my hand to dash away,

all the pain of yesterday.

free of what happened before,

come on lets go sweep that floor:

clear the tables

shut that door

we both know what were here for.
