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
Verse 2
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
Repeat chorus
Verse 3
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
Repeat chorus
