I saw your hands today
For the first time in what felt like forever
Those strong hands that held mine while I jumped over puddles
Caught me whenever I was about to fall
The hands that built houses and fixed everything --
Broken pipes, dead cars and crocodile tears
I saw your hands today
But they weren't really your hands
Just another dad's of another daughter's
But God, they reminded me of yours

I saw your hands today
For the first time in what felt like forever
Those strong hands that held mine while I jumped over puddles
Caught me whenever I was about to fall
The hands that built houses and fixed everything --
Broken pipes, dead cars and crocodile tears
I saw your hands today
But they weren't really your hands
Just another dad's of another daughter's
But God, they reminded me of yours
