I know everything for all that I know
But there's always two sides to the way to the bulk of the stories go
Sometimes things better off less spoken, should be shouted, written down & quoted

These hands can't hold the time
Better use them wisely while they're still all mine
Hold on and hope for the best
Hold on and hope for the best

Seems like a voices that'll sing to me
All come here through to tell me the things I couldn't see
When my eyes have woken to the things I've broken
I'll be gone distracted by something else

These hands can't hold the time
Better use them wisely while they're still all mine
Hold on and hope for the best
Hold on and hope for the best

[Jam]

Think I'll pause here awhile instead
To reflect on what I've done and the things I never said
And when I'm good and acquainted with the problem
I'll continue down the way that I started
These hands can't hold the time
Better use them wisely while they're still all mine
Hold on and hope for the best
Hold on and hope for the best
