lyrics

Hand Upon Your Shoulder Copyright ©2011 Colin Ward

V1
Sometimes things don’t work out the way they ought to,
Sometimes you are dealt a losing hand,
Sometimes you get in a pile of trouble,
And you don’t know what went wrong with all your plans

V2
No light at the end of the tunnel,
Seems like there’s no sun behind those clouds,
Sometimes the water keeps on rising,
And you just want to get lost in the crowd

Chorus
But problems always have some kind of answer,
Don’t have to sit and let them smolder,
Make a hard decision, so you can move ahead,
And let a friend put a hand upon your shoulder

V3
The answer may be hard for you to handle,
No-one says that life will be a breeze,
So clear your head and move towards the future,
And see if you can’t find some inner peace

Chorus

Bridge
And some time after you’ve decided,
The weight is lifted, where did it go?
You’re feeling like a bird, flying high and free,
You made a choice, sometimes you just say no

Chorus
