The Hand Song - Go Fish

The boy only wanted to give mother something

And all of her roses had bloomed

Looking at him as he came rushing in with them

Knowing her roses were doomed…

All she could see were the thorns buried deep

With tears in his eyes as she tended his wounds

But she knew it was love

It was one she could understand

He was showing his love

And that’s how he hurt his hand.

He still remembers that night as a child

On his mother’s knee

Holding him close as she opened her Bible

And quietly started to read

Then seeing a picture of Jesus he cried out

«Mama, he’s got some scars just like me!»

And they knew it was love

It was one they could understand

He was showing his love

And that’s how he hurt his hand

Now the boy’s grown and moved out on his own

When Uncle Sam comes along

A foreign affair, but our young men were there

And luck had his number drawn

It wasn’t that long till our hero was gone

He gave to a friend what he learned from the cross

And they knew it was love

It was one they could understand

He was showing his love

And that’s how he hurt his hand
