Daddy`s Hands — текст песни (Leslie Phillips)

I remember daddy`s hands folded silently in prayer
and reaching out to hold me when I had a nightmare
you could read quite a story in the caluses and lines
years of work and worry had left their mark behind

I remember daddy`s hands how they held my momma tight
and patted my back for something done right
there are things that i`ve forgotten that I loved about the man
but I`ll always remember the love in daddy`s hands

[chorus]
Daddy`s hands were soft and kind when I was cryin
Daddy`s hands were hard as steel when I`d done wrong
Daddy`s hands weren`t always gentle but I`ve come to understand
there was always love in daddy`s hands

I remember daddy`s hands working til they bled
sacrificed unselfishly just to keep us all fed
If I could do things over, I`d live my life again
and never take for granted the love in daddy`s hands

[chorus]
Daddy`s hands were soft and kind when I was cryin
Daddy`s hands were hard as steel when I`d done wrong
Daddy`s hand weren`t always gentle but I`ve come to understand
there was always love in daddy`s hands
[repeat]
