Four Hands from no relation by Penny Grennan
This song started out as a lullaby! It is about the work that parents put into bringing up a child. I wrote it on a song writing retreat in my friend’s kitchen and I love the medieval star wars feel to it. Thank you Dean Parker.

Lyrics
Four Hands
Four hands work the land
Faster than two
Do.
Four hands make better plans
for the future of two.
Four hands hold tight,
Curling Fingers in the Night
Hands holding tight
Make the night
light.
Four feet, clear the yard
Working hard
For you
Four ears hear clearly
A song sung
For two
Four eyes, watch the sky
Skudding past
Bright blue
Number four divides twice
By two
True
These four are two
Who do all this
For love of you.
