In Your Hands

from Amoeba & Stone by Abi Moore

/

lyrics

In your hands, in your hands
It blew up in pieces, leaving shrapnel in the sand
And how can I forget the pain?
When fragments still remain, splintered deep within my hands?

And what a surprise...I had no say
In the final outcome anyway
If anyone had cared to listen to me
Things would’ve ended differently

In your hands, in your hands
Was there some masterplan that I just don’t understand?
Or am I naive to believe
You set out to deceive, when you are the better man?

And what a surprise...I will not ask
Cos I know how it’ll just drag up the past
And heaven knows how we’ve had enough of that
What hope I have now will not last

In my hands, in my hands
Could it be within my hands?
I could have the final say
Cos whatever path you walk upon,
I’ll choose the other one
I will not follow your way

And what a surprise it’ll be for you
When my ‘empty promises’ all come true
And through my actions, you know, I’ll display
That I chose the better way...but

In your hands, in your hands
It’s always been the same
I just play this waiting game.

Americana / Roots-Rock artist from Nottingham. Abi's 4th studio album No More Chasing marks a raucous return after 10 years.

"Impactful, gritty, & above all, brimming with conviction. Abi's stripped back, stomp 'n' holler sound instantly took us to KT Tunstall, while her rootsy, distorted Americana guitar twangs have a delicious White Stripes flavour." RCM
