Safer Hands - Olive

Little hand held high, I reach for you

Innocent and small

Never felt so safe, no wider smile

I had it all

No worries at all

Little girl just three, she couldn’t see

What there would be

Clearer than you’d think, my memory

He treasured me, protected me

Wherever you have gone to

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Although you’ve gone for good now

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

The day you left, no warning came

I was sleeping

Maybe it was your undying love

You didn’t wake me, didn’t take me

Now the years have flown and I have grown

There is a yearning

Give me just one day, to while away

To that I’m drinking, wishful thinking

Wherever you have gone to

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Although you’ve gone for good now

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Even though it’s years, so long ago

There is a presence here

If there was some doubt, it’s over now

Of that I’m certain, there’s no question

Wherever you have gone to

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Although you’ve gone for good now

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Wherever you have gone to

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Although you’ve gone for good now

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Wherever you have gone to

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands

Although you’ve gone for good now

My mind is settled, you’re in safer hands
