The Hand You’re Holding Now:Skeeter Davis. #11 on BB Hot Country on RCA Records in 1961 [INTRO] [VERSE 1] I can’t forget the first time that I kissed you. It’s the sweetest feeling I have ever known. But every dream they say must have an ending. And you leave the hands you’re holding all alone. [VERSE 2] Did God mean I could keep you for a lifetime? Or did He mean for just a year or two? If it’s meant that I should have to lose you.. then what’s these hands you’re holding gonna do. [VERSE 3] If you don’t want me I won’t try to keep you. But there’s just the smallest chance you may be wrong Until you’re sure I hope you’ll never let go.. of the hands that you’ve been holding for so long. A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
