Lost Your Hands for a While

lost your hands for a while
had a sweet memory of your smile
did not know you for a time
and for a while –
I did, i carried on just fine
till the train came to a stop
at the end of the line

lost your hands for a while
had a sweet memory of your smile
and the fun we had
before i lost my way
with an overstuffed bag
lost my hope for a while

had a sweet memory of your smile
found the pole then the flag
remembered the belief i once had
good to find that smile
and dispense of the sad
lost your hands for a while
had a sweet memory of your smile
