Hold My Hand – Together All the Way

Lyrics

HOLD MY HAND – TOGETHER ALL THE WAY [Intro – Female] Oh, oh, oh, We take one step at a time. [Male] Oh, oh, oh, Together, your hand in mine. [Verse 1 – Female] The children reach the roadside, sunshine lights the town, a car is in the distance, but it’s getting closer now. [Male] You say, “We could run across, there’s time for me and you.” I take your hand and answer, “Let’s wait until it’s clear.” [Pre-Chorus – Female] In just a few short seconds, so much can change out here. [Male] So we stop and wait together, and look both ways with care. [Chorus – Both] Hold my hand, stay right here, cars can come much faster than they appear. Look both ways, take your time, we’ll cross when it’s safe, with your hand in mine. [Female] Hold my hand, there’s no rush, [Male] I’ll walk beside you all the way back home. [Both] Oh, oh, oh, we’ll wait right here, until the road is clear. [Verse 2 – Male] I’m sitting at the wheel, see a child beside the street, I ease off the accelerator, stop and let them cross. [Female] It doesn’t matter if I’m running just a little late, a child’s safe journey matters more than minutes I might save. [Pre-Chorus – Male] To little eyes, a moving car can seem so far away. [Female] That’s why we walk beside them, and guide them on their way. [Chorus – Both] Hold my hand, stay right here, cars can come much faster than they appear. Look both ways, take your time, we’ll cross when it’s safe, with your hand in mine. [Male] Hold my hand, there’s no rush, [Female] I’ll walk beside you all the way back home. [Both] Oh, oh, oh, we’ll wait right here, until the road is clear. [Bridge – Female] You ask me why we have to stop and stay. [Male] I say, “Look, there’s a car coming our way.” [Female] We let it pass, then look both ways once more. [Both] And when it’s safe, we cross, just like before. [Final Chorus – Both] Hold my hand, stay right here, cars can come much faster than they appear. Look both ways, take your time, we’ll cross when it’s safe, with your hand in mine. [Female] Hold my hand, there’s no rush, [Male] I’ll walk beside you all the way back home. [Both] Oh, oh, oh, now the road is clear, we cross together, with you right here. [Outro – Female] Oh, oh, oh, We take one step at a time. [Male] Oh, oh, oh, We make it safely home tonight. [Both – Softly] Hold my hand, together all the way back home.
