Little girls spend lots of time on how to make him grin

And little boys just want to be like him

Turn the page and rearrange and try to fit him in

Bad advice and holding up your chin

Could you hold my hand hold me close before you go

Won't you kiss her once, once or twice and let me know

How to live one day just as full as you lived yours

I could use you now ‘cause when it rains it pours

Travelling and mapping out the next place we'd explore

Distant lands have never felt so far

I'm standing tall for you my friend

I see you in the stars

And every tone-deaf singer in the car

Could you hold my hand hold me close before you go

Won't you kiss her once, once or twice and let me know

How to live one day just as full as you lived yours

I could use you now ‘cause when it rains it pours

I feel bad I never had the chance

To save your number when I had the time

‘Cause all I have are photographs and picture frames

And laughing tracks and your old ties

Hold my hand hold me close before you go

Won't you kiss her once, once or twice and let me know

How to live one day just as full as you lived yours

I could use you now ‘cause when it rains it pours
