Take My Hand

(album: layla - 2020)

("Can you hear me okay? ")

Take me out for ice cream
And I'll wear something cute
You appeared quite unexpectedly
And now I can't imagine my days without you
We talk on the phone till dawn
So stay with me if you want me
To be the happiest girl alive
Where do you wanna go? come on!
You're the stars, planets and the cosmos too
And I'm just a boring sky

I'm counting down the days
Till I see your face again
It brings me so much peace
So take me to a different place
Can't let this summer go to waste again
There's so much peace

It all makes sense to me now
I think I finally figured it out
I think I know what my life is about
I hope my mother's up there so proud
I think she sent you to help me out
Get me out of the hole I fell down

Take my hand
Catch me if you can
Take my hand
Catch me if you can

Do you know how lucky I am?
You're such a breath of fresh air
I used to bottle my feelings up
I don't have to now that you're there
And with my head against your chest
I can finally get some rest
I got so many feelings I wanna express

I'm counting down the days
Till I see your face again
It brings me so much peace
So take me to a different place
Can't let this summer go to waste again
There's so much peace

It all makes sense to me now
I think I finally figured it out
I think I know what my life is about
I hope my mother's up there so proud
I think she sent you to help me out
Get me out of the hole I fell down

Take my hand
Catch me if you can
Take my hand
Catch me if you can

("But it feels nice to know that someone's got your back. to know that you're not alone")
