Little hand held high, I reached for you
Innocent and small.
Never felt so safe, no wider smile.
I had it all, no worries at all.
Little girl just three, she couldn't see
What there would be.
Clearer than you think, my memory.
You treasured me... protected me.
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands. (Safer hands!)
Although you've gone for good now, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands.
On the day you left, no warning came.
I was sleeping.
Maybe it was your undying love, you didn't wake me,
Didn't take me.
And now the years have flown, and I have grown,
There is a yearning.
Give me just one day, to while away.
To that I'm drinking, wishful thinking.
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands.
Although you've gone for good now, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands.
And even though it's been so many years,
There is a presence here.
If there was some doubt, it's over now.
Of that I'm certain. There's no question.
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands. (Safer hands!)
Although you've gone for good now, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands.
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands. (Safer hands!)
Although you've gone for good now, my mind is settled,
You're in safer hands!
