Stepping Stones

Young heart... sweet dreams, cuddles tight
Future's looking good the morning looks bright
When Darkness comes don't want to go out
Don't want to stay in
What will my future hold... when will it begin. begin

I'll build the stepping stones and guide you through the river of tears
I'll be there to hold your hand, throughout those dark and painful years
So hold my hand squeeze it tight... I'll make a home keep you safe at night
I'll build the stepping stones for you... keep you safe and all you need to do... is squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand

In a year or two the tears will dry
laughter will bring a different cry
In quiet moments memories flash by
A gentle smile think of times gone by

Head in a spin future unknown
What might have been if the dice had been thrown
When life's challenges simply passed you by
A moment missed, the last goodbye, just squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand

I'll build the stepping stones and guide you through the river of tears
I'll be there to hold your hand throughout those dark and painful years
So hold my hand, squeeze it tight, I'll make a home keep you safe at night
I'll build the stepping stones for you, keep you safe all you need to do, is squeeze my Hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand

Life is about making compromise
Another adjustment don't criticise
Before you know it years have passed us by
We've held it all together, we say night, night

The lasting kiss is hard to replace
The gentle smile upon you face
Hugs and kisses throughout the night
Your fading smile I squeeze your hand
I squeeze your hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand

I'll build the stepping stones and guide you through the river of tears
I'll be there to hold your hand throughout those dark and painful years
So hold my hand, squeeze it tight, I'll make a home keep you safe at night
I'll build the stepping stones for you, keep you safe
And all you need to do, is squeeze my hand

Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand

Years later on changes come
Frail and innocent where do we turn
Feeling lost where do we go
You've got no time line your veins run cold
I hold you close keep you safe and warm
Family friends all gather round
Close of your eyes never to return
I say goodbye I squeeze your hand
I squeezed your hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand

I'll build the stepping stones and guide you through the river of tears
I'll be there to hold your hand throughout those dark and painful years
So hold my hand, squeeze it tight, I'll make a home keep you safe at night
I'll build the stepping stones for you, keep you safe and all you need to do, is squeeze my hand

Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
Squeeze my hand
