And he said, "Take my hand
Just tryin to get by
And as I looked up into those eyes
In the palm of your hand
And as he asked if I would come along
And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words
And the boy, that ordinary boy
Live while you can
I saw that boy standing there with a deal
In the palm of your hand, in the palm of your hand
That every day he finds just what he's looking for
Time will not flee, can't you see?
As I wake in bed
Touch the stars for time will not flee
In the palm of your hand"
For I felt what I had not felt before
Please come with me
Just a day, just an ordinary day
In the palm of your hand"
Or was it all in my head?
Don't you see your dreams lie right
Just a boy, just an ordinary boy
But as I looked to the door
Just a boy, just an ordinary boy
Don't you see your dreams right
In the palm of your hand?"
His vision borrows mine
But he was looking to the sky
And he said, "Take my hand
Just a dream, just an ordinary dream
Live while you can
And you'd swear those words couldn't heal that
And I know he's no stranger
And he said, "Take my hand
Don't you see your dreams lie right
Live while you can
I started to realize
For I feel I've held him for all of time
It all seemed so real
See what I see
Although they did not feel, no
Didn't he ask if I would come along?
Like a shooting star he shines
