about

This song was inspired by a picture of my grandmother holding the hand of a gentleman she had befriended in her final years in a care home. I was thankful that she had a friend to look after her, and a hand to hold on to.

lyrics

I once was a seeker, searching for something
that I could believe in, and put my faith in
When you reached out to me, knew that I'd search no more
Knew that I'd finally found, what I was longing for

A hand to hold on to, a heart that will stay true
Someone to belong to, a love that will stay new
I may not have it all, but what else now could I need
I know I have everything, got a hand to hold on to

When my life troubles me, there somewhere that I can go
I have solace there, within your heart I know
And when you hold me close, I know that I'll be alright
I can release my fears, because I have you near

A hand to hold on to, a heart that will stay true
Someone to belong to, a love that will stay new
I may not have it all, but what else now could I need
I know I have everything, got a hand to hold on to

When memory fades away, when health escapes my days
I know that you'll stay strong, that you will care for me
I know that you'll be there, standing by my side
Your touch is the last I'll feel, whenever I cease to be

A hand to hold on to, a heart that will stay true
Someone to belong to, a love that will stay new
I may not have it all, but what else now could I need
I know I have everything, got a hand to hold on to

I may not have it all, but what else now could I need
I know I've had everything, got a hand to hold on to
