From the recording Freshman 61
Whoa. This one is an emotional ride. Came together in a couple of hours after seeing a post from a friend suffering from Cancer and almost through her chemo. She posted on facebook after taking a "time out" walk - sans hair, sans makeup - and feeling quite raw and emotional. Endless stares from strangers, and feeling very alone and vulnerable. This song came out of that feeling of someone who has been going through the mountains and valleys of a life altering journey, and just that overwhelming need for someone to be by their side through it all. Have the tissues handy. - Matt
Lyrics
Take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s a long and lonely journey
Tears begin to fall
The pain is overwhelming
But I’m giving it my all
Please take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me
This path is long and winding
I somehow carry on
These mountains and the valleys
I can’t do it all alone
So take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me
I need you here beside me
I need your hand in mine
Hold me through the darkest times
When I can’t face it all alone
So take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me
Dance with me
Dance with me
