Shaking Someone's Outstretched Hand

You there hiding in plain sight

By the window in the night

The time is coming when you'll stand

Shaking someone's outstretched hand

You've become a distant star

Your laughter beamed from very far

The stone man laughs, the mad man smiles

And we trade places for a while

But me being me as I can see

If this is the new reality

I'll climb the beam to find the star

Where laughter fades and there you are

Alone embodied as you stand

I will take your outstretched hand

No longer hiding in plain sight

And everything will be all right

You there hiding in plain sight

By the window in the night

The time is coming when you'll stand

Shaking someone's outstretched hand

I'll climb the beam to find the star

Where laughter fades and there you are

No longer hiding in plain sight

And everything will be all right
