Lyrics
2021
I wanna write a song that makes you think about us
I want magical words and chords that can heal and turn nations into one
I want this song to empty busy streets if that provides
every person with the love I feel when I know I’m hurting no one

‘Cause it’s crazy the time that we’re living in
staying home saves a life
I know right now you might feel insignificant,
but together, I promise we’ll be fine

So don’t give me your hand, but give me your heart
There’s so much more power in that
Try to understand how distance can make
a whole world breathe as one
So don’t give me your hand, but give me your heart
I’ll save yours and you’ll save mine
and fall in love with every touch in 2021

I’m hoping when it’s over you will be a better you
And I’m hoping when it’s over I will be a so so much better me too
We’ll step outside to a forgiving world and realize
There is more beauty than ever before
We’ll see it in each other’s eyes

But just for now

don’t give me your hand, give me your heart
There’s so much more power in that
Try to understand how distance can make a whole world breathe as one
So don’t give me your hand, but give me your heart
I’ll save yours and you’ll save mine
and fall in love with every touch in 2021

We’ll then remember all the people we applauded to
They kept this planet going ‘round
They did it all for you

So glad you didn’t give me your hand; you gave me your heart
And I couldn’t help but cry
We thought of ourselves as a bigger picture
We took a chance and we won
You didn’t give me your hand; you gave me your heart
I saved every single part
We’ll fall in love with every touch
We’ll take it slow, no need to rush
We’ll appreciate the things we have in 2021
