Handprints

Handprints

Took the service elevator
Let us out on 8th
My daughter and the doorman
Got a secret handshake
Going to the tavern
A few blocks down the road
We could get there faster if we took a car
So we don't

Handprints I'm mournin'
I'm holding ya so damn tight
If we could run it back, run it back
You know I'd gladly take it twice

But I know, know in the back of my mind
Winter's a season away
And you hate the cold, so I'm asking the leaves if they'd kindly not change
I know, know in the back of my mind
Nothing is ever the same
If I could take one single moment and make it stay still in one place
If I could slow down time, I'd slow down mine with you

Walk around the river
Do it while we can
It won't be too long now, too long
Till it's FaceTime goodnights at 9 AM
Handprints I'm mournin'
Give me more time, more time, I'll spend it right
If we could run it back, run it back
You know I'd gladly take it twice

But I know, know in the back of my mind
Winter's a season away
And you hate the cold, so I'm asking the leaves if they'd kindly not change
I know, know in the back of my mind
Nothing is ever the same
If I could take one single moment and make it stay still in one place
If I could slow down time, I'd slow down mine with you
