Hold On With My Open Hands

William Fitzsimmons


If I had known you better I could probably get my money back 
From that old preacher and his organist who said she knew my dad 

When we were younger and you promised me that you would wear my ring 
But you where 14 years behind the time when you can mean such things 

But I will hold on with my open hands 
But I will hold on with my open hands 

And I suppose I should decide what I can do with all your clothes 
And closets full of all the places you and I will never go 

Is it misguided that I can recall the day you left my bed 
And asked your mom and dad if maybe you could stay with them instead 

But I will hold on with my open hands 
But I will hold on with my open hands
