You raise your head, beat the sun But your boys they lie, so close to you Do you dare get up? And wake the two Oh Elias, I see you there, at work in the daytime do you think you could, answer all the questions of the world In just one word, I think you could. If you die will i get word that you're gone Or will i hear it in passing conversation Will i stop short and, fall to the ground Distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found Hold my hand just one more time, to see if you're really gonna meet me Hold my hand just one more time, to see if you're really gonna meet me Honest and Manuel well you know, they're at school now Getting the chance that, their father's never seen See whats beyond, section 17 And in 10 years, when you look back at your boys well you know they've grown, way taller than the tallest sugar cane in the field If you die will i get word that you're gone Or will i hear it in passing conversation Will i stop short and, fall to the ground Distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found Hold my hand just one more time, to see if you're really gonna meet me Hold my hand just one more time Hold my hand just one more time Hold my hand just one more time, to see if you're really gonna meet meee.
