Lyrics

My hands are the same as your hands
and my eyes are the same as your eyes
so when I tie a string and it comes untied
well you see the same thing
your hands they touch the same string
so why does it come untied
why do these hands and eyes lie

Here I am asking for a favor
Please don't waiver in your answer
Please just hold your hands outstretched

Why can't I see the same as your eyes
Feel the same things in my hands
do the same things just as right
But thanks to you I have done the things that I have done
Seen the world that I have seen
Known the songs that I have sung
So this is just one way to
Say words like thank you

Here I am asking for a favor
Please don't waiver in your answer
Please just hold your hands outstretched
Here I stand, ask of me a favor
I will labor in my efforts now to pay this debt I owe
Why do I always owe

Oh, there's always a lesson to learn
Oh, there's always a lesson I've learned
Oh, there's always a lesson to learn
Oh, there's always a lesson I've learned

Here I am asking for a favor
Please don't waiver in your answer
Please just hold your hands outstretched
Here I stand, ask of me a favor
I will labor in my efforts now to pay this debt I owe
Here I stand, ask of me a favor
I will labor in my efforts now to pay this debt I owe
Why do I always owe
