Hand

Drag me by the hand
Feet track through the sand
But I shake you off
They’re not too far off
I think you want it
But how can this fit?

I’m not allowed to date you
But I wonder should I listen
I think you want me to do
What I want, and not listen

Drag me through the sand
Have to shake your hand
To get mine out of there
I can feel them stare
At us from across
This place where we work

I’m not allowed to date you
But now just why should I listen?
No one else in this place does
On your face the water glistens

Kick my ass through the sand
It’s hard for me to stand
When they keep kicking me
Why can’t they let us be
I think you want this
What ‘bout her I miss?

I’m not allowed to date you
But then what if I don’t listen
And what does this mean to you
I wonder would this be a sin

Kick and take my hand
Helping me to stand
Then you brush me off
And I blow you off
Your friend is still here
And she’s one who’s dear

Grab me by the hand
I’m not allowed to date you
Push me in the sand
I’m not allowed to date you
Bring me out of there
I’m not allowed to date you
Get them out of my hair
Tell them to let me date you

You’re holding my hand
We leave tracks in the sand
Don’t think I’ll run off
You trip and I cough
Trying not to laugh
Your foot goes in my path
