This old life seemed much too long
With little point in going on
I couldn't think of what to say
Words just vanished in the haze

I was feeling cold and tired
Yeah kinda sad and uninspired
But when it almost seemed too much
I see your face and sense the grace and feel the magic in your touch

Ooh lay your hands, lay your hands on me
Ooh lay your hands, woo
Ooh lay your hands, oh lay hour hands on me
Lay your hands

Back and forth across the sea
I have chased so many dreams
But I have never felt the grace
That I have felt in your embrace

I was tired and I was cold
Yeah with a hunger in my soul
When it almost seemed too much
I see your face and sense the grace and feel the magic of your touch

Ooh lay your hands, oh lay your hands on me
Ooh lay your hands, woo
Ooh lay your hands, oh lay hour hands on me
Lay your hands, oh

Now you made me feel so good
Yeah like I never ever thought I would
You know you make me feel so strong
And now our laughter just goes on and on

So c'mon lay your hands on me
'Cause close to you is where I really wanna be
And if it ever gets too much
I see your face and sense the grace and feel the magic in our touch

Ooh lay your hands, lay your hands on me
Ooh lay your hands, woo
Ooh lay your hands, oh lay hour hands on me
Lay your hands

Ooh lay your hands, oh lay your hands on me
Ooh lay your hands, woo
Ooh lay your hands, oh lay hour hands on me
Lay your hands, oh lay your hands on me
Lay your hands
