Hold my hand
And walk with me
Hold my hand
And have mercy
The soul lingers
Long after you pass
That’s why we feel like we’re surrounded by our past
Worlds split between the living and the dead
Our souls are not delivered yet
We stand en masse
The air drenched in a bath of memories
A constant reminder of our deathly legacy
Here
Listen to the rest
Of how one found peace before his death
All my life they told me
“Boy, when you get older”
“You can have whatever you like!”
All because of my genes
And because I had means
Thought that she would be my wife
But I never took a risk
And I’m scared to admit that
This is how I lived my life
'Till I put myself out there
Spoke without fear
Now I feel alive tonight!
When I first saw her
I smiled as she walked on by
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
I thought to myself
“I’d love to be her guy”
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
“That’s Willow,” they told me,
“A princess in disguise!”
La-la-la-la-la
They said we’d be married and boy, I almost died!
La-la-la-la-la
When she spoke to him
How are you today?
His only response was
La-la-la
When she spoke to him
Do you have anything to say?
La-la-la-la-la
She was so beautiful-
He admired her
Pined for her
Kept his heart enshrined for her
Dreamed that one day
He’d be good enough
To stand beside her
I wanna be great for one instant
Let them say I didn’t miss it
And I pray every minute
Let me just have one moment to shine
All my life they told me
“Boy, when you get older”
“You can have whatever you like!”
All because of my genes
And because I had means
Thought that she would be my wife
Now I’m scared to admit
That I’m gonna take a risk
And maybe I can save her life
If I put myself out there
Speak without fear
Yeah, I feel alive tonight!
I wanna be great for one instant
Let them say I didn’t miss it
And I pray
And I pray every minute
Let me just have one moment to shine
I wanna be great for one instant
Let them say I didn’t miss it
And I pray
And I pray every minute
Let me just have one moment to shine
Shine
Hold my hand
And walk with me
Hold my hand
And have mercy
I wanna be great for one instant
(The seconds of your life just slow down, slow down, slow down)
Let them say I didn’t miss it
(The seconds of your life just slow down, slow down, slow down)
And I pray every minute
(The seconds of your life just slow down, slow down, slow down)
Let me just have one moment to shine
