Put Your Hand In Mine Lyrics - Trace Adkins

(Skip Ewing/Jimmy Wayne Barber) 

He sat up on the bed and he watched me packing 

He already knew why I was leavin' 

I took what I needed but I sure left a lot still hanging 

But I figured I'd get it come the weekend 

He said Daddy when you get there 

Are you gonna have a refridgerator 

I kinda laughed and said I guess I will 

Then he handed me a tracing of his hand 

On the back of a piece of paper 

And a magnet and my heart stood still (when he said) 

Put your hand in mine 

And I'll be there anytime 

When it feels like you could use a friend 

I'll be there to lift you up again 

You can reach out to me anytime 

And put your hand in mine 

I drove past the Hardin Baptist Church 

Though it wasn't really on the way to my hotel 

Beside me on the seat I was looking at five small fingers 

When I heard the chapel bell (and it took me) 

Back another life ago when our hearts were open 

Oh, back when we could still agree 

Back when the future that we had was full of hope and 

You and I we got down on our knees (and said) 

Put your hand in mine 

And I'll be there anytime 

When it feels like you could use a friend 

I'll be there to lift you up again 

You can reach out to me anytime 

And put your hand in mine 

I couldn't even stay away one night 

I noticed you left on the light 

And I've only got one thing to say 

If you're not too tired and it's not too late 

Put your hand in mine 

And I'll be here all the time 

When it feels like you could use a friend 

I'll be here to lift you up again 

Would you reach out to me one more time 

And put your hand in mine 

Would you reach out to me just one more time 

And put your hand in mine
