Out of My Hands

The lines that we drew

The lines that we crossed

All that we had

All that we lost

The dream that we made

The life we had planned

Slowly erased

Like footprints in sand

It’s out of my hands

You held the torch

My guiding light

Bright smiles by day

Laughter at night

But the laughter turned sour

The nights grew too dark

Til there was no place

For me in your heart

It’s out of my hands

The path that we walked

Began to divide

You chose to cross

Where the river grew wide

But the water was deep

And the river ran wild

I threw you a line

And you pushed it aside

Now it’s out of my hands

All that we had

And all that we lost
