Trembling Blue Stars
If I Handle You With Care
Album: The Seven Autumn Flowers [2004]
Author: Robert James Wratten
I won’t bring things up, if upon them you don’t touch
If that‚s what you want, it’s whatever you want
I couldn’t be more clear, how day or night I’m here
So we’ll leave it there, we’ll leave it there
Just never stop singing your song
I hadn’t heard it in so long
And if I handle you with care
It doesn’t mean I don’t think you are strong
You say don‚t worry, but how can I not?
When once you were everything, and then some more
I can’t promise not to worry, only not to scratch beneath
The skin that is so thin, when it comes to me
Just don’t forget it’s everything
That you’re not like everyone
And never stop your singing
You’re as good as people come
Whatever we have seen, it’s just you and me, I haven’t gone
You’re right to believe, I’ll always keep you safe from harm
I’ll always keep you safe from harm
I won’t bring things up, if upon them you don’t touch
If that’s what you want, it’s whatever you want
