I've got some friends they’ve got life all sorted out
I've got some cousins too
I've got a family who could want more than that?
Won’t be the first to say that I do

You've got a friend she says it's time that I grew up
I turn around and say "how bout you?"
I've got a chance but I'm not coming from the top so tell me
Should I take this chance with you

Cause you're like Helen of Troy
A thousand ships and I'm just one boy

But I'll hold on to your tears
And you could tell me all your fears
Let me hold your hand
Cause you’re slipping through mine like sand

People they come and people they go
Where they go well nobody knows
Choosing words carefully with faces they show the feelings the
Feelings on faces don’t show the feelings we don't show the feelings

The sun the moon and stars
They all fall short of who you are
And I’ll hold on to your tears
And you could tell me all your fears
Let me hold your hand
Cause you're slipping through mine like sand

Take this chance with me
Take this chance with me

Cause I'll hold on to your tears
And you could tell me all your fears
Let me hold your hand
Cause you're slipping through mine like sand
