Waiting for a Handout Songtext
von Room Full of Walters

When she was just a girl
You could see her smiling, at you, at you
Then came the day when she
Couldn′t stop crying, she's so blue, so blue
Her head pounds, her eyes ache
She can′t sleep
When did it get so hard
She's been waiting for a hand outstretched
And she'll grab on, and hope for the best
You know that
He′s been waiting with His hand outstretched
And He′ll grab on, and hope for the best
You know that
He'll pull her up she may even stand tall
When she no longer fears the fall
She played with dolls
And she was so happy, to be, just to be
But now she′s older and
She can no longer be free, so free
Her heart breaks she feels that it's too late


To get a new start
She′s been waiting for a hand outstretched
And she'll grab on, and hope for the best
You know that
He′s been waiting with His hand outstretched
And He'll grab on, and hope for the best
You know that
He'll pull her up she may even stand tall
When she no longer fears the fall
And she′s been beating herself up
Over things that she can′t change
She's stumbling through her life
And just how strong does He have to be
To keep her slipping from eternity like
You and me are gonna be and can′t you see that
She's been waiting for a hand outstretched
And she′ll grab on, and hope for the best
You know that
He's been waiting with His hand outstretched
And He′ll grab on, and hope for the best
You know that
He'll pull her up she may even stand tall
When she no longer fears the fall
She'll fear to fall
He′ll pick her up and she′ll fall
She'll fall, she′ll fall
