Learned to Talk - Jimmy Somerville

In my hands I want to hold

Just to feel a trembling soul

Just to know that I’m alive

I turn my face to the sky

In my hands I want to hold

Keep it safe never let it go

Slow this heart a steady beat

Oh how precious that would be

Hold on never let it go

Time now feel the ebb and flow

On this land I want to walk

For at last I’ve learned to talk

And if I take it easy sure and slow

The world will wait I know

And if I feel unsure and lose my way

The world will wait, be there

In my hands I want to hold

Just to feel a trembling soul

Just to know that I’m alive

I’ll turn my face to the sky

Hold on never let it go

Time now feel the ebb and flow

On this land I want to walk

For at last I’ve learned to talk

Hold on (never let it go)

Hold on (never let it go)

Hold on (never let it go)
