trembling hands


The card is in her hands those trembling trembling hands She wants to see her partner her would be life (had it been legal) the love of her life but they won't let her in The card is in her hands those trembling trembling hands She just got off the phone and they said no they won't cover her because they're not married when they finally let her in the trembling hands take the cold still ones and squeeze but the cold hands don't squeeze back and the trembling hands shake harder
