With a clenched fist, I took a piece of you From the day we parted. It was just a little piece, so you never knew. Eye squinched, Face pinched, And clenched fist to my little heart, Too afraid that letting that part Of you go would mean forgetting. Forever loosing, The love I once felt with such happiness. Without a chance to ever confess That you have been my reason to live– My reason to give Life a chance and wanting nothing more than to Dance with you in my arms–Time finally on our side. So I held that piece Of you Like sand in my fist, you kept slipping through My fingers. And my clenched fist Had no bearing on the day when I just missed You, by a moment. And so tonight, my love, I release– With an open palm, I send all my love to you. With the only hope that someday, You just might see me, and love me too.

With an Open Palm
With a clenched fist, I took a piece of you From the day we parted. It was just a little piece, so you never knew. Eye squinched, Face pinched, And clenched fist to my little heart, Too afraid that letting that part Of you go would mean forgetting. Forever loosing, The love I once felt with such happiness. Without a chance to ever confess That you have been my reason to live– My reason to give Life a chance and wanting nothing more than to Dance with you in my arms–Time finally on our side. So I held that piece Of you Like sand in my fist, you kept slipping through My fingers. And my clenched fist Had no bearing on the day when I just missed You, by a moment. And so tonight, my love, I release– With an open palm, I send all my love to you. With the only hope that someday, You just might see me, and love me too.
