Hand Out Giving Songtext
von White Denim feat. Eric Slick & Jared Samuel

Await the long light in a full stop town
Where I prayed for blue sky, then stared at the ground
I tried standing up, tried turning around
I′m stuck inside with the curtains down, I

I still believe it, baby, what can I say?
I want to keep my love in a hidden place, I
I want to leave here, but I won't without you
I said I′d keep trying, I was telling the truth

Put your hand out, giving's gonna get you closer
Won't you tell me what to do?
Lay your head down, take a little rest on my shoulder
We can start over new
I know who to call if I should stumble and fall
Commit a criminal act or two
My hand out, giving it my best to get closer and closer to you


Lost in my mind singing way too loud
And spitting on each face in the crowd
I tried standing up, I started following down
I′m shook inside, and the band′s in town

I still believe it, baby, what can I say?
They took my love and made a big mistake
Oh, they don't see it, baby, not like you do
I said I′d keep trying, I was telling the truth

Put your hand out, giving's gonna get you closer
Won′t you tell me what to do?
Lay your head down, take a little rest on my shoulder
We can start over new
I know who to call if I should stumble and fall
Commit a criminal act or two
With my hand out, giving it my best to get closer and closer to you

Ah
Ooh, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah
Ah, ooh, ooh
Yeah
