Empty Hands and Heavy Hearts
by:
Close Your Eyes
Even When the rain falls and darkness hides your way
Even when the hope you hold is starting to break
I will be right here; I'll always be right here
Don't forget that I promised to stand by your side
through these dark nights
I won't let the weight of your guilt and regret swallow
you whole; you have a hand to hold
I know that life can be so hard
You can't stand underneath the weight of it all
And before you know the things you brought you joy
Have left you stranded stranded alone
When everything inside you wants to run away
And the dark won't give way to brighter days
Even if the guilt is more than you can take
When the world has abandoned you I won't turn away
When your heart is empty
I promise that I will hold you through the storm
My love will carry you
even when the world has turned its back on you
and all you need is a hand just to make it through
never forget the dark gives way to brighter days
and no matter where you run I won't turn away.
This bond can never be broken.
