These Hands from Family Album by Buick Audra

these hands may not look like much
ain’t got no Midas touch, but they are mine
these hands are a little rough
but they are soft enough to be fine
(maybe it’s more than I can take)

these hands sew a steady line
they learned to play in time, and they are strong
these hands never get a break
they’re working every day, and the days are getting long
(and maybe I want it all my way,
maybe I’ll get it all someday)

then nobody can take it from me
if I’m all that I ever need
I’m gonna make it, any way I can
I will get there
because of these two hands

these hands have my father’s shape
but in a different way, I have his lines
these hands hold my mother’s dreams
of who I’m gonna be
but, all in my own time
(maybe they were my dreams anyway)

and nobody can take it from me
if I’m all that I ever need
I’m gonna make it, any way I can
I will get there
because of these two hands
