I Wanna Be Your Hand Lyrics

[Pre-Chorus]
Well even if I tried to change the topic
It's the only one I got
They tell me all the time I've got to drop it
And I try but I can't stop

[Verse 3]
People say we're running out the clock
Running out the clock
But that's not the way we played the game
People say we're running out the clock
Running out the clock
But I try to make them understand

[Chorus]
I wanna be your hand
Running through your hair as you're sitting there
Laying in the sand
I wanna be your hand again
I wanna be your hand
I wanna be your hand
Running through your hair as you're sitting there
Laying in the sand
I wanna be your hand again
I wanna be your hand
[Bridge]
Running out the clock
Running out the clock
Run it out
Running out the clock
Running out the clock
Run it out
Running out the clock
Running out the clock
Run it out
Running out the clock
Running out the clock
Run it out

[Chorus]
I wanna be your hand
Running through your hair as you're sitting there
Laying in the sand
I wanna be your hand again
I wanna be your hand

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“I Wanna Be Your Hand” is the seventh song in Holy Ghost!’s 2013 album, “Dynamics.” The track centers on the metaphor of New Year’s Day ball drop, and Frankel having to “drop the topic” of a previous relationship. He still fantasizes about being “a hand” to the imagined relationship, despite his friends' suggestion that he “change the topic.”
