Hold my hand girl, tighter,
much, much tighter.
Cause what I got to say,
I only hope and pray,
comes out as well as I rehearsed it yesterday.
Baby when my first tear shows,
it's a shine for you to go.
Baby when my first tear shows,
it's a shine for you to go.
And leave her alone,
with the broken dreams
that she owns.
It's a crime for me to tell ya,
it's a sin for me to stay.
And I'll never look behind me,
when I start to walk away.
Girl I'm sorry but it's all
that I can say.
Baby when my first tear shows,
it's a shine for you to go.
Baby when my first tear shows,
it's a shine for you to go.
And leave her alone,
with the broken dreams
that she owns.
You know that I used to love you so.
We enjoyed every moment together.
But I'm not the kind
of man to forever hold your hand.
And I said as much as I haven't said it.
Baby when my first tear shows,
it's a shine for you to go.
And leave her alone,
with the broken dreams that she owns.
And baby when my first tear shows,
it's a shine for you to go.
