Safer Hands

Little hand held high, I reached for you, Innocent and small Never felt so safe, No wider smile, I had it all No worries at all, Little girl just three, She couldn't see What there would be, Clearer than you think, My memory He treasured me, Protected me [Chorus] Wherever you have gone to, My mind is settled, You're in safer hands Although you've gone for good now, My mind is settled, You're in safer hands The day you left, No warning came, I was sleeping Maybe it was your undying love, You didn't wake me, didn't take me Now the years have flown and I have grown, There is a yearning Give me just one day, to while away, To that I'm drinking: Wishful thinking [Chorus] Even though it's years, So long ago, There is a presence here If there was some doubt, it's all over now Of that I'm certain, there's no question [Chorus] --- Safer Hands - Olive
